Angus pillar

The Angus Pillar is finished!! I love the way the crisp, clear linework of the map on one end fades into the abstract painting on the opposite end. The numbers on the pillar correspond to reference points on a map of the area.

The Green Paintings

 Here’s a look at what’s happening in the studio lately. I’m experimenting with adding ash to my oil paint for colour and texture being very fond of muted colours. I want a foresty, mossy green for my image with a bright ribbon of the river swirling languidly across the painting. Before I started I had no idea how tricksy green is!

The ‘Angus Pillar’ combines sculptural form with my painting, evoking memories of standing stones that are dotted around that area and the mountains that are a backdrop around the valley.
