'Taking landscape as an initial starting point, my paintings are not about literal representation; instead, the focus is on the emotive qualities of place. Using an objective palette tied to the Scottish landscape, colour acts as a vehicle to reveal the picture planes underlying points of reference. With the structure, design, and colour harmony being grounded in the everyday, the viewer is encouraged to readdress notions of their surroundings, where the familiar is opened up and made full of possibility.'
All welcome to join us for the opening event on Friday 24th April 5-7pm, with refreshments kindly contributed by fellow Leithers, Moonwake Beer
Exhibition open: 6th April - 19th June 2026
Monday to Friday, 9.30am - 4.30pm
