Kenyan born, Peter Blackwell has been intrigued by Africa’s environments and exceptional diversity all his life. Raised on a remote farm in Northern Kenya, the African bush was Peter’s outdoor arena for entertainment and learning. Formally educated in England, where he received a degree in Graphic Design, Peter was keen to return to his roots to pursue a career not related to the advertising world, but to focus on the bush and continue on a lifetime interest, that of wildlife painting.
