|  A long-time art teacher and painter in California, Peter Blos also made numerous sketching trips into the Southwest.
He
was born in Munich, Germany, the son of a well known portraitist, Carl
Blos. He studied art in Munich and Paris and in 1931, immigrated with
his artist wife, May Blos, to California where he became a portrait
painter. From 1931, often accompanied by his wife, he made more than
thirty-five annual trips to the Southwest to paint the Hopi and Navajo
tribes and landscape of Utah and Colorado.
In 1953, he began
teaching in California at San Mateo Arts and Crafts School and later
taught art at Burlingame, Danville, and Lafayette. He also taught for
twenty years at the Civic Arts Education Center in Walnut Creek.
