Peterborough-based artist Peter K Rollings has just completed what must be one of the most complex works of art in the world. Peter has set himself the challenge of making each picture bigger & better than the previous, to the extent now of depicting entire planets. The new one, The Ringed Planet Gosberton, is 1680mm across, ie over 1.5 metres, and took 18 months to complete. Now all that's needed is a gallery big enough to exhibit it. He's hoping to put it on his site soon.

The previous planet, Wyberton, is available as an A3 poster, superbly printed by Peterborough printers Austin Rose. It's an enthralling work, in which you're likely to see new things at each look. An understatement to say that East Anglian art is on the up...it's just gone interplanetary!  

The poster is available for £3.14 cheque incl. P&P from Peter Rollings, PO Box 318, Peterborough. PE1 2YG, while stocks last.

Peter's style has impressed the judges of a BBC
competition. Peter Rollings' 'Borne' pictorial
extravaganza is prominently featured on the Radio 4
competition's site:

in Gallery 8. A link to the pic:

The style has come about through years of studying the
area's art & architecture, & is of an intricateness to
rival the golden ages of art. Other examples can be
seen on his website:
