Tony uses his camera as a tool to capture the subtle beauty of everyday things often missed and the world around him as he sees it. He is particularly drawn to the play of light, color and texture as well as unexpected connections. Tony's work does not fit neatly into any particular category. When he once went on a trip with a friend and she looked at his photographs, she asked, "Were we in the same place?" His perspective and what he saw were completely different from his friend's own experience, and that was when he realized he had an 'Uncommon Vision of the Common World.'

"Peterson covers a wide range of subjects with his work but the nature of structures and the structures of nature are common threads... He focuses not so much on the objects themselves but on focal points and resonant visual elements, so that each is as much a study in shape and symbol as a record of the thing being photographed." - Steve Brisendine, ArtKC365, June 26, 2011.

Tony is a graduate of the University of Kansas.
