This painting was inspired by a day trip to a rocky beach on the west coast of Scotland on a winter's day in January. My daughter became very absorbed in jumping on the rocks and I wanted to capture this feeling of being absorbed in your own world. I am interested in how people experience and connect with the natural environment, especially city kids like my own. I wonder how important the environment will become in my childrens' lives, and the lives of their children. The dimensions given are for the framed painting. the actual image size is 24 x 30cm. The image was painted in acrylic paint with oil paint on top, giving the image an lovely surface texture and sheen. The frame is a dark grey colour (stained wood).

United Kingdom
I am a figurative painter based in Edinburgh, Scotland. I'm inspired by everyday experience of life and especially people and nature. My paintings often focus on nature and the way people connect with the natural environment in our modern world, especially those of us living in cities and towns. I think about how important the environment is for all of us, and how the changing environment may affect our future lives. I record my ideas in sketches, photographs or plein air paintings, from which I often then develop larger works in the studio. I enjoy using the physicality and expressiveness of the materials - usually ink,acrylic paint or watercolour - to attempt to describe in visual language those strange or beautiful moments which always seem to elude capture in the written word. I am inspired by contemporary figurative artists such as Peter Doig, Marlene Dumas and Chantalle Joffe, but also by the Scottish tradition of painting including artists such as William Gillies and the Scottish Colourists, especially Cadell for his bold use of colour.
