SLA 033 – Machrie Moor Standing Stones
I started this painting back in the Winter of 2020/2021 after visiting the Machrie Moor standing stones on the Isle of Arran during a holiday, but it never got finished until July 2023. My husband and I found the extensive site of stones during the COVID pandemic. ...
SLA 032 – Greenan Castle

I live just 5 miles from the Carrick village of Straiton and my husband and I often enjoy the trails around the village. I painted this landscape in 2018 and it's also the inspiration for our brand and logo. The skyline is a beauty, featuring the Straiton Monument...
SLA 009 – Self Portrait
In 2018 I studied portraiture at the Robinwood Art School and although it was difficult, I loved the maths behind the scaling of the facial features. Mixing all the different skin tones and colours in oil paint was enjoyable too. I generally don't paint portraits, but...
SLA 005 – London Commute
I lived and worked in London for six years and this painting always draws me back to that time. I love the red bus and the red telephone box. I donated this oil creation to the Ayrshire Sportsability charity in 2018.
