Balmullo Cornfield, 12 X 9 inches (30 X 22 cm) Acrylic on Canvas covered board
This view of Balmullo from the cornfield is a little jewel of a painting! It celebrates the joy of colour and light and recalls the warmth of a glorious summer's day in a sleepy little village in Fife.
Ullapool Harbour (8" X 10") Watercolour on 140lb Bockingford Paper

This was painted from a photograph, after a summer tour of the North West Highlands, which we made some years ago. It brings back the tranquil atmosphere of the harbour, with the waves gently lapping the sides of the boat.


Stob Ghabhar, near Bridge of Orchy (10" X 13") Watercolour on 140lb Bockingford Paper
Stob Ghabhar in winter is a spectacular sight. My inspiration for this painting came from a picture by David Bellamy, a Welsh artist who combines his love of mountain climbing with his talent for watercolour painting. He has made several TV programmes and has written several excellent books.
