Mostly Oils

Landscape artist Peter Ferguson held an exhibition of his work in the Palmerston Galleries recently. Mr Ferguson's paintings are mostly of local scenes but also include some South Island work. He also sold all of the 50 paintings he hung at two exhibitions in the South Island before Christmas. Peter Ferguson, whose work is mostly done in oils, takes about 10 hours on the average for each painting.
