MARTIN PEERSON is an American painter who captures the landscapes of Western Arkansas and Eastern Oklahoma. Peerson was born in Tulsa, Oklahoma in 1955, and after graduating with a degree in horticulture from Oklahoma State University, he worked for the University of Arkansas in agricultural research. He would later go on to own and operate his own landscape company in the River Valley area for 21 years.

Peerson did not begin painting until 1983, learning from local art classes, community college classes, and workshops taught by established artists. When he is not painting, he enjoys remodeling his home, volunteering at his church, woodworking, and tending to his horses.

This exhibition will consist mostly of landscape paintings of Western Arkansas and Eastern Oklahoma but will also showcase select still lifes and portraits by the artist.
