INSPIRATION FOR MY ART 

SCOTTISH ISLANDS

It is an artist’s dream to live near the islands of the west coast of Scotland.  I love to visit the Hebridean Islands where beaches are nothing short of spectacular. The colours are amazing and I try to capture the beauty in my paintings, using a vivid palette and texture.

WILDFLOWERS AND FLOWERS

I am inspired by the wildflowers in nature and pretty flowers in favourite vases.  I am always attracted by the colours and pattern in nature .  I enjoy painting still life.

THE ISLAND OF ARRAN is one of my favourite places.  If you are on the island - please visit THE ARRAN GALLERY in Whiting Bay to see my paintings and art prints.

THE LAKE DISTRICT is another area that inspires me.   If you are in KESWICK - please visit THE NORTHERN LIGHTS GALLERY at 22 St John's St.
