" Furniture Gives You A Place To Sit & Rest.

Art Gives You A Place To Explore & Dream" - Jan Peterson

Welcome To Jan Peterson's Art Gallery

I have always loved all things in, on or near the water. So you will see that all of my art reflects this passion. I try to capture the soul of things, places and people. From the Chesapeake Bay to the Outer Banks and even through the Bahamas, I have painted my favorite scenes whether local culture, waterfronts, beaches, boats, harbors, lighthouses, wildlife, sea life and unique vistas.
I hope you will find just what you're looking for here at the online gallery of Jan Peterson Art.

 

Beaufort NC Art
" I look for the nooks and crannies...the soul of things, people and places."

Chesapeake Bay Art

" There is something mysteriously wonderful about our largest estuary, The Chesapeake Bay...
from its meandering rivers to the wide open Bay, from its migratory flocks of waterfowl
to the solitary
 blue heron fishing its creek, and from the hard working watermen who ply its waters
to the boats they built to harvest blue crabs, clams, fish and oysters, the skipjacks and deadrises. "

Bahamas Art
" The islands and its people speak to my soul. "
