Note: Peter Thomson graduated from Glasgow School of Art in 1984 with a degree in Drawing and Painting.

His latest body of work focuses on what Thomson calls "contemporary observations" and pays an homage to a series of his most admired artists. He has participated in numerous solo and group exhibitions throughout the UK, Europe and the USA. Thomson was elected as a member of the Royal Glasgow Institute of the Fine Arts (RGI) in 2015 and the Royal Scottish Society of Painters in Watercolour (RSW) in 2016. His work can be found in many national collections such as the Gallery of Modern Art Glasgow, Scottish Arts Council and the Fleming Collection, London.
