Peter W. Milton

Born in Lower Merion, Pennsylvania in 1930, Peter Winslow Milton began his formal art education at Yale University School of Art and Architecture, under Joseph Albers, from 1950-1954 (B.F.A.) and his M.F.A. in 1962. Developing his own style, he initially concentrated on panoramic landscapes and later created images that are dreamlike and surreal.

In 1962 Milton discovered he was partially color blind and began seriously pursuing engraving and etching. He combines the strange and the familiar, the past and the present in prints noted for their meticulous craftsmanship.
