Peter Corbin is
primarily known for sporting art landscapes, merging
the natural wonders and elegant drama of the
sporting life with the realm of fine art. His
vivid sporting art scenes convey a sense of place,
mood, and atmosphere in the light reflected off the
water or the transmitted light through the clouds or
trees revealing influences of the Hudson River
School.
Corbin studied both painting and sculpture at
Pomfret School, Wesleyan University where he
received a B.A. with High Honors in Art, and the
California College of Arts and Crafts. His
greatest influences have been A.B. Frost, Ogden
Pleissner and Winslow Homer.
He grew up in a home filled with fly rods, shotguns,
Labrador Retrievers and the sporting art of A.B.
Frost. Using his experiences as a life long
angler and hunter he has traveled from The American
West, British Columbia, South America, Europe, New
Zealand and Africa recording portrait commissions
for his clients’ love of the outdoors and places
they cherish.
