After living for a short time on the Isle of Skye in Scotland I was inspired to paint some of the photographs I took of the local landscape and so my art career began in 2007. I was very pleased to be the featured artist for february 2008 on the my gallery website. At present I am staying in the Burnham on Sea area in somerset and painting mainly coastal landscapes. I also make Driftwood Frames from wood that washes up locally on the shore. More recently I invested in an Epson R 2400 professional printer. It uses the latest K3 pigment based inks and micro piezo technology. The results are outstanding quality images that are colourfast for up to 108 years for colour and 200 for B&W. The A3 + prints on velvet fine art paper are the finest quality available. Each print is signed and numbered for authenticity.

I have always loved the Coast with its freshness and vitality. The sound of the waves as they gently lap on the shore or crash and thunder as they relentlessly pound the Land create moods ranging from tranquil peace to sheer exhilaration. The atmosphere produced when Sea meets Land and night and day exchange is sometimes wonderful. I seek to capture something of it's essence but can never do the real thing justice. The driftwood frames carry a mystery and history about them as they have been sculpted by the ocean for who knows how long? and from where? I hope you find the work inspiring, GM.
I currently have original and limited edition work at Sea Breeze Gallery, 37 Victoria St, Burnham On Sea, The Oak Tree Arena Bristol Road, Highbridge, Picture Bute, Gourock, and The MacKinnon Country House Hotel , Kyleakin, Isle of Skye. |
