  • "Poise" Life-Size Silhouette Portrait Framed Mixed Media on Canvas Painting
    Located in Baltimore, MD
    "Poise" is a framed mixed media work on canvas by Christopher Peter, depicting an abstracted silhouette of a standing female figure. The artist's technique of layering paints, handmade papers, and gold leaf creates a luxurious texture and adds visual interest to both the silhouette and the negative space. This piece is finished in a silver scoop floater frame with a whitewashed woodgrain effect on the frame’s interior and sides. Pricing includes the pictured frame. Unframed dimensions are 72 x 36 inches. About the artist: Christopher Peter was raised in Phoenix and received his formal art education at Arizona State University. He joined galleries across the US and presented his first international exhibition in 2017 at Miami’s Art Basel. Well known for using unconventional materials, Christopher’s work focuses on painting figures and floral elements. Combining and blurring the boundaries between these disciplines, a personal narrative is created between the viewer and the work that hints at the artists’ ultimate goal of using painting...
