Peter Daniels (1935–1998)
Born in Salford and trained at Manchester College of Art, Peter Daniels spent much of his early career working as a designer before devoting himself fully to painting. In the early 1980s he moved with his wife Elizabeth to Pembrokeshire, where the landscape of the St Davids peninsula transformed his work and became an enduring source of inspiration.
Working across watercolour, acrylic, pastel and mixed media, Daniels developed a distinctive visual language defined by luminous colour, shifting light and a sense of atmosphere that lies somewhere between memory and place. Paths, trees and open landscapes appear again and again in his paintings — not simply as scenes, but as invitations for the viewer to step into a moment of quiet discovery.
His work reflects a lifelong search for something just beyond the visible. As Daniels once described it:
“There’s always something I’m trying to see that I can’t quite capture – it’s a constant journey, like chasing the Holy Grail.”
Throughout his career he exhibited widely across the United Kingdom and internationally, with work shown in London galleries including the Royal Academy of Arts and held in private and public collections around the world.
In 1994 Daniels was commissioned by Nimbus Records to create a monumental series of murals for Wyastone Concert Hall. At over 1,600 square feet the project became one of the most ambitious artistic commissions of its kind in the UK at the time. Shorty after his work began he was diagnosed with terminal cancer. Determined that the project should still be realised, Daniels developed an innovative method using emerging digital technologies. The system he devised allowed the works to be finished according to his vision and unveiled in 2003 during a performance by the English Symphony Orchestra.
Today Peter Daniels’ paintings remain celebrated for their powerful use of colour and light — images that capture not only the landscape of Pembrokeshire, but also its timeless atmosphere and quiet mystery.
