Peter Caden

Peter Caden was born in Toronto in 1955. He recalls that his first significant art influences were the frequent visits to the McMichael Art Collection and the Royal Ontario Museum. The writings of Hans Hoffman and Josef Albers have also impacted his studies in mid- century painting and ceramics. He is self-taught and began experimenting with gouache and encaustic in 2007 and now uses acrylic paints, employing a precise, methodical technique. Exhibiting non-figurative images and dynamic color, his current paintings are primarily concerned with creating images that are refreshing, reflective and sometimes whimsical.
