Peter Lewis was born in South Wales and studied at St Martin’s School of Art in London before emigrating to Canada in the 1970s. After numerous solo exhibitions, he began to work with landscape and has completed several ambitious projects in North America. As well as the Great Divide waterfall, he is also known for giving a unique wedding gift to Prince Charles and Lady Diana Spencer in the form of more than 1,200 bonfires from Scotland to the Channel Islands. Architectural projects have included work for Clive Piercy and Cowichan Tribes in British Colombia. At his home in Vancover Island, Peter built the Bright Angel Garden, a 10-acre water garden that includes a 2-acre lake, 14 fountains and the largest prayer wheel in North America.
