A Peek at Peak

Bob Peak. You may not know the name but I'd guarantee you know his work.

I just spent another session at his web site [always longer than intended]. I've seen most of his paintings many times before, but there's just something about them that calls you back.

Peak was called the "Father of the modern movie poster" and I'll bet that you'll agree that at times his paintings were better than the movies they were promoting. Peak also did dozens of Time and TV Guide covers...US postage stamps... and examples of his paintings hang in the Smithsonian.

If you'd like to check out his work, click HERE. But don't be surprised if you stay a little longer than anticipated.
