Landscapes

Blessed as I am to live in Scotland, I find inspiration no matter where I roam. Landscape painting and especially plein air landscape painting is in my blood. There is nothing more wonderful than being outside in nature and recording what I see. The weather in Scotland is often not conducive to outdoor painting so I often rely on initial sketches and photos to finish off paintings back in the studio. I’m often amazed at what my eye can see and what my camera records - there’s a huge difference in experiencing a place first hand and taking a photo of it!
