Born in 1950, Peter has a background of self-taught artistic achievement. Cyril David, Peter's father, was a professional artist who encouraged his creative endeavors. Thus began a family tradition in the arts.

Peter's early years of exploration in both art and science led him to sculpture, drawing, and science fair awards. His adult years have brought explorations in geology, astronomy, electricity, and physics as well as continual expressions in many artistic media.

Peter first began to discover the beauty of glass while on an autumn photographic trip through the color-drenched valleys of Vermont. Peter saw a similarity between the colors of autumn leaves and branches against the sky and the colors of the stained glass and lead in the picture perfect churches of rural New England. Looking closer, he noticed the beauty of colors in the glass that replicated some of the subtlety of the colors in nature.
