"My laptop was completely ruined when my office flooded. Even the hard disk was wrecked; but I didn't lose a single document."

Peter Shulman began his career as a painter in the mid 1960's with no formal training. Within three months after completion of his first painting, his Pop Art "Fried Egg" paintings were featured at the prestigious Bianchini Gallery in New York City next to the work of Pop Art icons Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein. Peter has never looked back. In the years since he began painting, his work has been in more than seventy solo and two hundred group exhibits. He is a disciplined painter and a constant worker who puts brush to canvas 365 days a year. Shulman's self-taught, striking, hard-edged style is immediately identifiable. More than 1,400 of his acrylic paintings on canvas have been sold and are featured in museums, universities and corporate offices, as well as in prized private collections around the world.
Describing his work, Shulman explains: "I am a concept painter. What I hope to achieve is to stimulate the viewers enough to begin reflective thought. Whether they like the work or not is a matter of personal taste. If they have stopped, looked and thought, then I have achieved my goal."
"Each painting begins as a very detailed drawing. As I paint, I remove unnecessary detail to reveal the hard, central core of the subject. After I finish each piece of work, a wonderful moment occurs. I stand back and think 'WOW I actually created this.' There is a combined physical and mental feeling of joy that cannot be adequately put into words. If that moment ever stops coming, I'll stop painting
