Peter Stevenson Is a fine artist and illustrator. Before attending University ot Maryland as a fine art major, Stevenson's early childhood was spent in the rural farmlands just beyond the highly influential Brandywine Valley. He has lived and worked in various markets, including Washington. D.C., Maryland and Virginia, Philadelphia, New Jersey and New York City, where he is a member of New York Society of Illustrators.

Now having returned to the Lancaster area of Pennsylvania, he is re-exploring the region and allowing his impressions of it to influence a new collection of thematic paintings. Once described as "Where Rothko meets Wyeth", the collection, titled Biospheres focuses on the place where land and sky meet, and rural life happens. The intentional contrast of two juxtaposed colors, implying earth and sky, offers a simple abstract scene that is set for a meeting point. It's at this intersection the horizon line, where the buzzing, humming flurry of life and human emotion can be felt, sensed and imagined.
