"In the aftermath of his life, I find myself compelled to fight his battle for him:
I am convinced that my father's art is late breaking news from the last century.
The work he left behind is probing and profound, abject and obstinate,
luminous and eerie, eccentric yet true to its own inner logic. It revels in
metaphysical doubt; it radiates the belief of its maker."
- From the article Need to Believe by Daniel Pinchbeck

Dusk is a favorite, the atmospherics in counterpoint to the imposing materiality of the surface. Gary Snyder recognized the value of Peter's vision. I hope they both get more recognition for this work.
Mark- I do too. Really think he's underrated.
Beautiful work!
