2016

Dimensnions: 66” X 48”

Medium: Axalta Cromax AT on Aluminum

Artist: Peter Maier

“Glowing Whites” is a moment of motion held in quiet reverence. Against a pitch-black backdrop, the white rooster’s wings flare open—not in aggression, but as if caught mid-dance, mid-breath, mid-revelation. There's grace here, not noise. The feathers, lit like silk under morning light, seem to hum with life.

Peter Maier once painted Porsches and Ferraris before turning his eye to organic form. Using industrial-grade automotive paint on aluminum, he renders nature with a surreal clarity that transcends photography. Here, technique and tenderness intersect.

The piece doesn't simply portray an animal—it exalts it. There is nobility in the posture, dignity in the detail. “Glowing Whites” invites you to look closer, not just at the bird—but at how beauty lives in movement, in light, and in the quiet confidence of being fully seen.
