About Peter Rashford

Peter Rashford Artist Peter Rashford began working in art at an early age. His mother created art and passed interest in the arts onto her son. She introduced and encouraged artistic skills. Peter majored in art and math at Clinton Central School, Clinton, NY. He received an Associate in Applied Science degree from Mohawk Valley Community College, Utica, NY, in 1977 majoring in Advertising, Design, and Production. He received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Syracuse University in 1979 majoring in Illustration. Peter has worked with publishers, advertising agencies, graphic design studios, offset printers, screen printers, and videographers. His activities have included many facets of printing and video production. “Midair Studio” produces and distributes limited edition prints and serigraphs, original art, and graphics. The business also offers illustration, murals, graphic design, and video production.

Peter exerts his artistic muscles in pen & ink, acrylics, watercolor, pastel, charcoal, colored inks and pencils, airbrush, serigraphy, computer generated images, and animation. He strives to use diverse subject matter and materials that require all his creative skill and craft to invent an innovative work of art. Designs may be hand draught, photo mechanically manipulated, digitally generated, or any combination of techniques. His art leans toward realistic landscapes and wildlife, fantasy, and a dab of abstract.

Peter has garnished numerous awards in art exhibitions. Such as pen and ink drawing titled "Castles Made of Sand" was awarded the 2012 Mary Garrison Memorial Award in the 21st Annual Essential Art Regional Juried Art Show at the Cooperstown Art Association Gallery, 22 Main St., Cooperstown, NY.
