Eyecon Gallery is proud to announce the inclusion of a remarkable artist, Peter East, whose work and story have touched many.


The Artistic Vision of Peter East

Known for his delicate pencil sketches, Peter’s art captures emotion and detail with a subtle yet powerful hand. This post shares his inspiring journey, the fight he faced against cancer, and the exclusive release of four restored limited edition prints on archival quality paper now available at The Eyecon Gallery.

Peter East’s art is defined by its precision and emotional depth. His pencil sketches reveal a mastery of shading and texture, bringing simple scenes to life with a quiet intensity. Each line and shadow tells a story, inviting viewers to pause and reflect.


His work often focused on everyday moments and natural settings, transforming them into timeless pieces. The subtlety of his pencil strokes creates a sense of intimacy, making his art both accessible and profound. In "Tabby Cat" above all of that prowess is on display a true collectors artwork, whilst the original remains in the East family collection the gallery has released a very small limited edition set of giclée prints printed on archival quality paper.


A Courageous Battle and Lasting Impact


Peter’s life was marked by a courageous fight against cancer. Diagnosed several years before his passing in 2015, he continued to create art throughout his illness. His determination to keep drawing, even in difficult times, inspired those around him and added a deeper layer of meaning to his work.


His passing left a void in the art community, but his legacy lives on through his sketches. Peter’s story reminds us of the strength found in creativity and the importance of preserving the work of artists who face personal challenges.
