Statement

You have found your way to my new website.


It felt necessary to take a moment to explain to collectors—both old and new—my shift to a “direct from the atelier” approach.


After more than twelve years of selling my work through galleries, I have chosen to offer my artworks through my own studio.


This decision comes after long reflection.

As with many fields in 2025, the future feels uncertain, and it is difficult to see what the art world will become, but one thing feels clear to me: the traditional model has expired.


Over the next 6 months I will gradually be shifting to this 'Direct from the Atelier' approach.


I want the people who collect my work to experience a more personal connection with the studio, the process, and the pieces themselves.

Selling directly allows me to share new work as it emerges, maintain full transparency about materials and pricing, and ensure that every collector receives a piece that has come straight from my hands to theirs.


This shift is not a step away from professionalism; it is a move toward a more intimate, honest, and sustainable way of working.


Thank you for continuing this journey with me, and for supporting an artist-led practice rooted in authenticity, clarity, and direct connection.


My sincerest thanks for your interest in my work and for your kind support !

Biography

Peter Pitout is a South African artist born in 1977 in Durban and currently living in the south of France.


A graduate of industrial art and design in 1993, Peter Pitout became passionate about painting and decided to go to London in 1995. He stayed 8 years and experimented with several mediums before focusing on oil painting as main tool of expression. In 2003, he moved to the south of France and obtained a professional silkscreen qualification in Toulouse in 2006. Since then, the artist has devoted herself fully to her art and mainly addresses subjects that appeal to human identity and form, as well as to surrealist landscapes.


Influenced by its roots

Having spent his childhood on the shores of Durban in South Africa, Peter Pitout's works are strongly influenced by his roots. The artist's works are imbued with the colors of African landscapes and the Indian Ocean. For the painter, the process of creation is also a way to rediscover his true inner roots and develop his consciousness.


An international artist

From South Africa to the south of France via London, Peter Pitout has developed a style of his own and allowed him to participate in several exhibitions in France. An artist to follow!
