Chanonry Point

Popular spot near Fortrose on the Blackisle for watching dolphins. I was taken by the silhouette against misty winter light
Cairngorms

Friends asked me to paint the view from a parents house of the Cairngorms, so a panorama developed with some late afternoon winter sunlight.

Another from Glen Strathfarra, perhaps slightly cliched but I couldn’t resist the colour and lighting looking north west toward the head of the glen.

Neidpath Castle

Peebles is a cracking border town full of interesting nooks and crannies and plenty of independent retailers.
Tweed art, (tweedart.co.uk) in the town have been kind enough to take some of my work, and I had a wander up to the castle a couple of years ago.
Strathfarra Falls

I’ve not updated blog since the site crashed and I lost 6 months of posts so this and the next few posts are a bit of a catch-up.
Glen Strathfarra is perhaps my favourite Scottish Glen, secluded wild and relatively unvisited.
