TWO GALLERIES IN ONE LOCATION !
Born in 1937, Peter is a self-taught artist having started to paint as a hobby when he was 19 years old. Turning professional in the 1970s, Peter’s artworks now hang in corporate boardrooms, hotels, clubs and in private collections both in Australia and around the world. Nearly every continent can claim to have at least one of his paintings on its walls.
Peter lived in Melbourne in the 1970s where he owned and operated his own gallery at Olinda in the Dandenongs. When he moved later to Canberra, the Australian government purchased examples of his art for presentation to visiting heads of state.
During a television interview a journalist asked Peter how he would describe his art. Peter answered: “When I paint a horse, it looks like a horse; when I paint cattle they look like cattle. So I guess you would call me a traditional artist. I paint my paintings the way I see them, which is why so many people can relate to the places and scenes that I paint”.
“P.J. Art Gallery”is the only art gallery where the name Peter J Hill is signed on every painting that hangs on its wall. A Canadian customer once said: “To get to see the Outback, one only has to step into the gallery and take a look around. It is like stepping from the Coast into the Country in one step”.
