Statement

Statement

Landscape is my primary source of inspiration; I am particularly drawn to the natural interplay of surface, texture, colour and depth. In my current  works I  am exploring the nature of recollection and visual memory: labyrinthine pathways,  incompatible subjects, clarity and illegibility.

I came to Edinburgh in 1968 as a student, married and settled in the Scottish Borders. I am a full-time artist and draw my inspiration from the Lammermoor Hills and the landscape of the Scottish Borders. I also work in sculpture and worked with E. Paolozzi, Vincent Butler, and painters James Robertson, Ann Oram, George Donald and others in the E. C. A.  and Leith School of Art in Edinburgh. I have exhibited in Talbot Rice gallery Edinburgh, RSA, Patriot Hall Edinburgh, Newcastle Guildhall, Mall Galleries London  and the Scottish Borders galleries. My work is in private collections  Modern Art Gallery curator Edinburgh, Leith School of Art director,  Mellerstain house collection.
