PETER YESIS

BIO

Working from his home studio in Searsport, Maine, Peter explores new ways to convey his thoughts and feelings with oil paint as he renders scenes of nature in a soft realistic style.   Peter Yesis has always been drawn to the drama of the sea, the delight of flowers and to the beauty of the outdoors. A native of New Jersey he shifted his focus to traditional easel painting after a long career in the engineering field. His artwork has been featured in national exhibitions and has received numerous awards and honors. A member of Plein Air Painters of Maine , Oil Painters of America, and the  American Impressionist Society.  Peter is represented by Roux & Cyr International Gallery, Portland, ME.

When I am painting, my goal is to draw the viewer's attention to the underlying beauty that I see. While I may set the mood and begin to tell a story, the painting should hold the viewer’s attention long enough so they discover and feel something of their own.
