About Peter

I grew up in Johannesburg, where my initial education was at St. John’s College, the Johannesburg Art Foundation (under Bill Ainslie) and, from 1976-1980, at the University of Cape Town. My career-long involvement in art education began while I was still at university, and from 1984-2020, I served as Head of Visual Arts at Bishops, Diocesan College. I am currently working as a private art tutor from my home studio in Rondebosch Cape Town, teaching children, teenagers and adults. I am also involved in a range of art-education related activities, including organizing a major community art exhibition that took place Rondebosch during July 2025 and now a community exhibition at Bishops Diocesan College scheduled for June 2026. I am also a practicing artist, working mainly in oils, acrylics, watercolors, various drawing media and sculpture.

Based on my 42 years of teaching experience in the field of Visual Arts education, I provide a student-focused approach to art education, teaching the essential skills and knowledge for students to flourish in the subject. I have a tried and tested approach to teaching in an incremental way and identify each student’s strength in order to unlock their creative potential. I teach in English and give practical lessons at my home-based studio in Rondebosch Cape Town, and online via Zoom. My rate for individual lessons is R 150.00 per hour, but students attending a course with others at my studio pay R 125.00 per hour. Some of the art courses I have offered for adults include: A Course in Acrylic Painting – Seeking Inspiration from Giorgio Morandi; Essential Drawing Skills – Drawing the Human Form Part 1; Painting in Watercolor – A Range of Approaches to the Medium and Painting a Still Life in Acrylics – Towards Abstraction. For my adult art classes, I cater for beginners and advanced students alike. I provide instruction for both the practical and theory components of NSC Visual Arts for Grades 10 – 12. In my practical lessons for pupils working towards the NSC Visual Arts through Grades 10 – 12, I lead pupils through the Practical Assessment Tasks (PATs) with careful attention to planning, investigation and exploration in sourcebook work. When approaching the final practical work, I always guide the pupil towards using the most appropriate medium/media given their particular strengths. In teaching the Visual Cultural Studies (theory) component I provide extensive supporting material to supplement the textbook. I also teach enrichment art classes for children with an emphasis on creativity and using a wide range of media and techniques. I teach during the school terms only.
