David allan peters biography of michael

David Allan Peters is a painter whose innovative artistic process consists of building up thick layers of pigment on wooden panels, some of which hold up to 100 different layers.

Once these are dry he cuts and carves into them, revealing a variety of colors, patterns, and fragmented geometric shapes. When talking about this process he explains, “I paint these beautiful colors and keep stacking them on top of each other.

It’s like hiding secrets.
