Coastal pines
45x36cms (hxw)
collagraph & screenprint
£380
August 2023
I took the train to Dunbar with a friend and we walked up the coast passed Belhaven, with Tyninghame beach to the North. We passed John Muir country Park and saw the damage of Storm Arwen ‘s high winds in 2021 to the pine trees. it was still beautiful to see them but a bit more sparse and a few at odd angles (see the one to the left of my print!).
This print is currently on show (until 14th Jan 2024) with the SSA 125th Annual Exhibition at the Maclaurin Art Gallery, Rozelle Park, Ayr.

Distant shores
37x55cms (hxw)
collagraph & screenprint

June 2023
An area of Scotland with views that never dissapoint me is the stretch on the West Coast between Arisaig and the Sands of Morar. This particular print is the view from Back of Keppoch area, with it’s white sands and turquoise sea broken up by the layers of rocks.
This print took some time to make, a lot of rock textures to make on my collagraph plate followed by some tricky screenprinting areas on top.

Inspired by the surrounding and beautiful area of Plockton, I was attracted to the coastline with it’s very curly seaweed on the shore. A lovely tranquil place with a lucky house owner living by the sea!

Overlooking Edinburgh, Braid Hills
41x41.5cms (hxw)
collagraph & screenprint
£350
February 2022
Edinburgh has many a hill to walk up which have great views over the City. The Braid Hills give you views all around including the Pentland Hills behind, but this view is over the sea to Fife with Arthur’s seat and The Crags in the distance as well as the Castle. I wanted to show the green spaces that sit within Edinburgh, so I was drawn to the gorse bushes in the foreground of the Braid Hills leading onto Blackford Hill prior to seeing the City in the background and finally the Firth of Forth.

Falls of Dochart
45x36cms
collagraph & screenprint
£290
September 2021
The alluring Falls of Dochart by the town of Killin are always mesmerising. My print shows them when the sun was shining and the weather was calm and you could walk over the rocks and stare into the deep blue river. The next day, after a very heavy rainfall overnight they were completely changed and the river was roaring over the rocks, which were barely visible anymore. My print is the tranquil version of the Falls, the collagraph technique for the textured ground areas and the flat screenprinted blues for the sky and river.
In December 2021, I exhibited this print at Edinburgh Printmakers ‘Solace’ exhibition.

Tideline
19x35cms
screenprint
£180
August 2021
I love to be by the sea and a quick escape from Edinburgh is to get the half an hour train ride to North Berwick. I often head down the South coast and I enjoy sketching the view from the shore. The Bass rock always seems to creep into my view as it sits on the horizon. I sometimes paint watercolours while I’m there and in this screenprint I wanted to try and transfer the fluid look of my watercolours into my screenprints by creating washy layers of semi-translucent colour.

April 2021
Rannoch Moor is a place that I have often passed on my way up North, occassionally stopping at, just to walk into a part of it and feel the openess all around with lochans splitting up the land and quite often snow topped hills in the distance. One of these days I hope to have a proper walk in the area. This print is based on the same section I always seem to stop at.

It was a very calm, clear, bright day when I was there and the views of the islands felt very tranquil.

2020 & 2021
During the covid-19 first lockdown, I spent my one walk a day in the Pentland Hills of Edinburgh. They are very near to where I live and being able to go out and do watercolours, sketches and enjoy the fresh air was a tonic. From my sketches I developed this print on a mini etching press that I had in the house at the time.
In December 2021, along with my print ‘Rocky perch, North Berwick’, they were exhibited at the Scottish Gallery in their exhibition ‘City lights’.

Dazzle Exhibition
Dovecot, Edinburgh
August 2020
Dazzle is a contemporary jewellery exhibition that has been running for many years in Edinburgh. Each year they ask an artist to exhibit alongside the jewellery and in 2020 I was very happy to receive that invite when the first covid-19 lockdown was taking place. It gave me something to aim for and kept me busy, mounting and framing works for it.
Dovecot Studios have beautiful spaces in them and I had a lovely long bright white wall to exhibit on. The exhibition took place in the August of 2020 when there was that small window of opportunity for people to visit galleries again before the Winter lockdown.

At the beginning of December in 2019, on my way to Killin, Perthshire, I stopped at a very flooded Callander where the river had burst its banks. It was an incredibly bright December day and the blue from the sky and the still river looked so beautiful. I hope to capture that light in this print!

SSA/VAS exhibition at the RSA galleries, Edinburgh.
I like a bit of texture on a print surrounded by flat areas. I do this by making a collagraph plate, printing it through an etching press and then adding in screenprinted layers once it is dry.
This view is between Arisaig and Morar on the West coast of Scotland. One of my favourite places with outstanding views over the islands.
