Peter D’Alessandri studied for a BA in Fine Art Painting at the Norwich school of Art in the Eighties. He then chose to pursue an ordinary life and career, away from art, for the next twenty years. He only returned to painting after the loss of his partner. 

His work was at first informed by his loss, and was very much a cathartic experience. It has since evolved, and developed into a personal observation of the present political and social climate.

He now paints full time from a studio in Kent. He shows his work regularly, and has sold paintings to collectors worldwide.
