Peter Von Artens was a Master Painter & such a genuine "gentle" soul. He was a wonderful blessing to have had the pleasure to work with & touched our souls with his work. He lost the battle & fierce fight with Cancer that was discovered suddenly in 2003. He left remembrances in our hearts. I would like to introduce Peter Von Artens. Art is a critical component of Staging your home for living, vacationing, or for resale & I am sure that you will fine these amazing pieces will bring you Joy and a sense of awe.
