Peter Eastman is a SA artist who famously dropped out of art school foregoing formal education for a practical one. His slightly unconventional approach to painting sets him apart from his contemporaries. Eastman’s choice of subject matter is sometimes a little arcane and many of his paintings are very difficult to see, serving to articulate Eastman’s concerns around the viewer’s relationship to his work, and to painting in general.
