I am a professional artist living and working in rural Perthshire. My work is predominantly semi abstract impressionist land and seascapes, although the quirky acrylic cityscapes of Edinburgh I have produced lately have proven very popular. I have numerous national and international sales but limit my work for sale through just a few galleries. Alpha Art in Edinburgh, Larks Gallery Ballater and Glamis Gallery. On average I sell one large canvas a week at present, there seems to be a rejuvenation in art purchase
A lot of my pieces sell directly through my open studio here in Kirkmichael.
I trained for four years in Fine Art in the 80’s in York specialising in Oil, but almost all my work is now in acrylic. I use found materials from the coast to incorporate texture in my paintings, predominantly sand from various west coast locations. Taking inspiration from living since 2004 in the Scottish Highlands. I work from sketches and photos here in my studio.
