Peace and Love ...

Peter and Jeanne Herley

Bio: by Peter Herley

Statement: The shapes, along with the bright and dark colors, represent the people, places and things I encounter from day to day. I try to convey tidbits of conversations I have with people and the energy I observe when people interact with one another. I'm hopeful that these pieces of work will capture the emotions and thoughts of viewers as they contemplate life through my paintings.
