    Living and working on the beautiful Isle of Harris, my inspiration for my artwork comes from the ever changing colours of land and sea, that I capture on my adventures; re creating not only the scene but also filling my art with the wonderful emotion from the moments. So, when you support my artwork, you are truly buying a wee ‘piece of me’ too!
