CLYDE Painting

'I'm interested in blurring the boundaries between reality, memory and the imagined. My current work hovers between representation and abstraction. I start by using very runny translucent paint that is dribbled, pushed around and left to pool and from this abstract almost instinctive chaos, I introduce form and structure.' I am a Scottish painter born in the highlands who is currently living and working from central Germany. I lived in the northwest county of Donegal in Ireland as a professional artist from 2010-2015, where I was Irelands Portrait Artist of the Year in 2013. Previously I lectured and taught Drawing & Painting at Dundee University's Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art & Design in Scotland from 2004 until 2010. All paintings unless stated otherwise are Oil on wood.
