ARTIST BIO

I was originally trained in life drawing and oils in the early 60's at University in So. California. In 1990 I became a serious street artist (petepinza.tripod.com or google my name) in Santa Cruz, Ca. selling over 2000 spray-can paintings to tourists all over the globe until 2013 when I turned to figurative painting winning a 1st Prize at the Gold Coast Sculptor Society's Erotica Art Show.

In 2006 I became enthralled with watercolours which have now become my main focus receiving several 1st place awards on the Gold Coast.

In 2004 I began tutoring life drawing and figurative art from the Northern Rivers of NSW up thru the Sunshine Coast and in 2008 began tutoring watercolours as well with rewarding success.
