Peter Liew is one of the most established Malaysian artists in recent times.

Born in 1955, Peter hails from Perak where he obtained his Diploma in Fine Art through the iconic MIA (Malaysian Institute of Fine Art). Since then, he has been working relentlessly to perfect his skills and artistry where he would eventually take up a lecturing position with MIA from 1981 to 1994.
