Olive Grove in Autumn Painting

Self taught Artist; living mostly in the Scottish Borders, with a working background in Design Graphics and Cartography. I am fortunate, also to have a base in Greece which reflects in the subjects of some my art. En Plein Air painting/sketching is the basis of my work, as I feel to experience the light, colours, temperature and sounds of the day, is the essence of the end result. Painting outdoors is more challenging in Scotland but no less enjoyable. I do not restrict myself to any one medium as each vision requires different treatment. I have explored Artists in many styles of Art but feel drawn closest to Impressionism and Abstract Expressionism.
