Biography
Born in 1954. I paint vibrantly colourful geometric abstract paintings in an Op Art style. I started painting aged 16 on discovering the wonderful works of Bridget Riley and Victor Vasarely. My paintings explore the optical effects of linear distortion and arithmetical progression. The patterns and colours used are carefully selected to create either an optical illusion of movement, or to create a feeling of tension on the surface of the painting.
I have sold work internationally and exhibited across Hertfordshire, and in London, Brussels and Dublin as well as at the Royal Academy Summer Show.
Some of my paintings have been used for covers of LPs and CDs – see https://www.discogs.com/artist/2585331-Pete-Greening. The Drone-Mind / Mind-Drone series is an ongoing project, with further releases planned.
