STORIES Of LAND & EARTH 2015-2024
"A sense of place is embedded in memory, connected to the people we knew and loved. Dad had a boat on Loch Lomond in the 1980s. He renovated 'Ladybird' in a huge warehouse on Inchmurrin Island. Some of these paintings allude to this little boat as a metaphor for a life resurfacing through the painting. Family time was spent in Carradale, Ardentinny, Carnoustie and St Andrews. These paintings relive those experiences and memories. They are not all literal interpretations, often moving into abstraction as the moment takes me."
