Peter Hurd

Peter Hurd was an American painter whose work is strongly associated with the people and landscapes of San Patricio, New Mexico. He is equally acclaimed for his portraits and his western landscapes. His large egg tempera paintings earned him national recognition. During World War II, Hurd worked for Life magazine as a war correspondent attached to the US Air Force. He covered almost all the fronts of the far-flung battle line, creating hundreds of "War Sketches" that range from poignant to comic. Some of Hurd’s most well-known portraits were of his neighbors, family, and friends at Sentinel Ranch. He loved to paint people who were deeply connected to the land, and always showed them outdoors, against the hills and sky. Many of Hurd's works can be seen at the Hurd-La Rinconada Gallery in San Patricio, New Mexico.
