Peter Kephart paints on paper with fire. By combining and manipulating the basic physical elements of fire, water, earth and wind, he creates abstract and landscape imagery unlike anything seen before. His proprietary technique and resultant Firepaintings are absolutely unique in art history, and really must be seen to be believed. His work is gaining ever wider media attention, and is exhibited and collected internationally.
All of these paintings were born over a bonfire, on paper.
