On my easel this week: Stockbridge, lighthouses, Ardnamurchan

by
Stockbridge Edinburgh painting
Work in progress: Stockbridge, Edinburgh. Oil on canvas, 40x50cm. The high street in my neighborhood in Edinburgh. I started this one a while ago (last seen here) and put it aside for a while. Now I think it’s almost done.

 

I’ve been busy inside the studio and out these past couple weeks. It’s daylight out almost all the time these days in Edinburgh, so it’s easy to fit in painting time. My subject matter seems to have drifted to be all Scotland all the time at the moment.

Orkney Lighthouse Painting
Work in progress: Lighthouse (Orkney). Oil on canvas, 30x40cm. There’s still a lot of the canvas showing through on this one, but I might leave it that way. 

 

I’m also hard at work rebuilding my website. Most of the pages and parts are already there, and I think it looks pretty good so far. I’m still adding paintings to the shop, and tweaking things here and there.  Feel free to pop over and have a look, and let me know if you have any feedback for me, any particular features you’d like to see.

Ardnamurchan Painting
Work in progress: On Ardnamurchan (Western Scotland). Oil on canvas, 40 x 50 cm. This is painted on top of a half-finished Highland scene. I really like the textures that come through from the underpainting.
