Tilting Windmills is a l'hommage to Man of La Mancha. Centrally featured is Don Quixote wearing a barber's bowl, "the Golden Helmet of Mandrino." The Sancho character is a light-hearted salute to the famous photo of Picasso. The Madonna-like form suggests Dulcinea rather Aldanza. Included is the "noble" steed, Rosinante. As you get to know Peter, you will find that he is no stranger to tilting windmills, himself.

I am a sight impaired artist from Phoenix, Arizona working in oils.
I painted actively as a child, teen and young adult becoming primarily an abstract expressionist working in oil. In the late 1990s, my sight deteriorated; I began having difficulty focusing, distinguishing or blending color, and moving from the palette to canvas. My eyesight became my enemy and angrily I retired my brushes.
By 2009, I realized the foolishness of leaving paint. The long hiatus made me less confident and my eyesight was even worse--like I had lost 30 years. I began with decorative pieces, pride aside, to find my brushstrokes and method.
Painting is a slow process for me now. But, it is again my great consolation, my mistress and my vision.
