I have sketched extensively for many years in the Borders, Highlands and many of the islands off the West coast of Scotland as well as the moorland of the North of England near where I live.
I find remote, sometimes isolated or desolate buildings in a landscape very powerful and evocative. These lonely, almost time frozen buildings in the landscape are something that has fascinated me for many years, the absence of human activity in my paintings is a perfect contrast to the world that we live in.
