Peter Maisch

Peter Maisch is a painter who works primarily with egg tempera and oil on relined canvas or jute and completed his training at the Staatliche Kunsthalle Karlsruhe. His works are characterized by directly applied paint on a rough surface and high-quality pigments, combining tradition with a modern, passionate perspective. He conveys deep emotions such as memory, longing, and melancholy, making the hidden beauty of places, landscapes, encounters, and lost time vividly palpable.

Peter Maisch transforms literature, stories, and fleeting moments into artworks that open up a new, sensual world to the viewer. His recent commission by an author from Wallstein Publishing for a book cover underscores his reputation and his ability to combine his art with other creative disciplines.
