When on Arran have a good look for local artisan products and displays.
Arran Art Gallery represents the work of over 80 artists in a spacious and beautifully lit gallery by the sea in Whiting Bay. The gallery holds the largest stock of original art to be found on the island and one of the largest in Scotland. In addition to local artists, the gallery exhibits many of Scotland's established contemporary artists. At present approximately more than 90 Scottish artists are represented in the gallery and also on the website. Quality ceramics, sculptures, photography, jewellery and glasswork complement the gallery; and there is a wide range of artist prints that can be posted directly to any destination worldwide. The gallery also exhibits artwork for sale in a select number of venues around the island. The gallery is open all year round.

My paintings are based on Scottish landscapes and the feelings they evoke. For me flowing rhythmic lines and beautiful shapes make up landscapes.
My style is fairly abstracted, each mark, shape and curve is carefully considered. I think my work was originally influenced by cubism but I now have a very distinctive style of my own.
My paintings have an almost hypnotic effect while I'm painting. Hours pass very easily in 'Edith', my shepherd's hut studio, which has a jaw dropping view over Brodick Bay.
I show my work at Art galleries around the west coast of Scotland, at various island exhibitions, at my guesthouse The Glenartney and online at my website. I have completed many commissions from all over the UK (examples of these can bee seen on my website)
My limited edition Giclee prints are born and bred on Arran - the fine art printer lives and works here too. I also have placemats, coasters and cards of my work.
