5" x 7" Oil on panel - unframed-
I'm a Scottish artist raised on the Isle of Bute, currently living and working in my Glasgow home studio. The subject of the majority of my work is landscapes and seascapes from around the Isle of Bute and the British coastline.
Working with oils and gouache both 'plein air' and in the studio, I focus on colour and textural variations to achieve impressions of my subjects, that have an added dimensionality and life up close.
This surface texture is developed in oils by using pallet knives and thick loaded brush strokes dispersed around thin layers of paint, with the occasional points of raw surface poking though.
My gouache work Is discount more inclined towards exploring colour relations but I also apply thick layers of texture when needed.
