Artist • Storyteller • Contemporary Painter

I’m Arlene Peters, a contemporary mixed-media artist based in Scotland. My work explores abstract realism through layers of texture, emotion, and nature-inspired forms, creating pieces that invite reflection, connection, and quiet storytelling.
Inspired by the Scottish landscape, human emotion, and moments of stillness, I work intuitively, allowing each painting to evolve naturally rather than following a fixed outcome. Through layered textures and expressive movement, I aim to create work that feels both atmospheric and deeply personal.
My artistic journey has evolved through life experience, curiosity, and an ever-deepening connection to the natural world. Themes of strength, resilience, emotion, and quiet presence continue to shape my practice.
I hope my work brings a sense of calm, depth, and meaning into your space — offering not only something to look at, but something to feel.
