Peter Collis

Back in the 1940's Peter Collis was a friend and fellow student in the Juniors Department Camberwell School of Arts. I greatly admired his work and thought he was really talented. Recently I came across a folder with some of his sketches mixed in. I tried to find out what happened to him but search results reveal a more well known Peter Collis, but not this Peter Collis who went on to the Slade from Camberwell. Last time I saw him he had the opportunity to visit Africa with a friend from the Slade. 

Here's a little nod to Peter....we often used our fellow students as subject matter...
