Illustrator PETER SCOTT uses traditional techniques of watercolor, ink, and gouache to create his award winning illustrations. More than forty of his solo books have been published worldwide. As Peter is descended from a long line of master mariners and shipwrights, it is not surprising that boats are a favorite subject to paint. His studio is in an old sea captain’s house overlooking the river.
