I think my palette is becoming autumnal already! 1 of 8 paintings at Green Gallery in a 6 person show with Stuart Buchanan, Dorothy Black, Marion Thompson, Morag Young and Nichol Wheatley in the upstairs gallery alongside the Lex McFadyen solo. Preview this Sun 21 September 2-5. #groupexhibition
Some of the paintings I will be exhibiting soon at Green Gallery in Buchlyvie, Stirlingshire. Beautifully framed @FarndonFrames. This summer’s sunshine has been great but the changeability of the Scottish weather continues to inspire me. #scottishweather#coastalart#latesummer
My painting Borderland explores a place where garden meets a fallow field. I am very pleased that it will be part of someone’s home thanks to Alan at Fidra Fine Art who included it along with other paintings of mine in their Summer Exhibition. #warmyellows#umbers#fallowfield#artcollector
Listening to the Waves, one of my Sandend paintings just found a new home with a lovely couple who popped in to see the Summer Exhibition @fidrafineart. Three of my four paintings found homes in the past week. Fidra Fine Art is such a welcoming place to find work you can live with. #artcollecting
January on a Border Farm might seem an unusual choice for the time of year but when it sold yesterday @strathearngallery in Crieff it made me remember the beauty of winter and how poignant the structure of trees in winter can be. Love Brueghel’s paintings of the four seasons. #artforthehome#creiff
Storm, Cythera was completed during my artists residency at Wrexham University. It was a piece that provoked much discussion during the residency. Very much a conversation with Watteau #storm#watteau
Sarah at The Russell Gallery, in Putney sent me this lovely picture of my painting “Behold the Sea” in their Summer Exhibition. Always lovely to show work at The Russell Gallery. #londongallery#artlondon#londoninteriors#putney#seascapes
Nice to see this painting go off from Edinburgh to America from the festival show @graystonegallery, especially as it’s my first sale with the gallery in my first show with them. So good to know someone wants to live with your work! #edinburghfestival#artedinburgh#banffshire
Just sitting in the garden painting the flowers and the washing. It’s easy to fall into an impressionist frame of mind on a summer’s day like this. And why not? #impressionism#garden#satie#artinthegarden#smallpaintings @thelemondgallery
A closer look at Seeing and Remembering. Low tide, summer haze, shifting light and perceptions, mixing with memory as you try to match what’s seen to what’s remembered. Never reconciled, they coexist, as suggestions and counter suggestions in paint that might equate to an experience of place.
