‘A December morning, Glen Sannox,Isle of Arran’, Acrylic & Pastel, 2022, 76 x 23cm
Catalogue number: 438
Price: SOLD
Region: Islands
About this painting:
Of all the many wonderful places on the Isle of Arran, Glen Sannox has to be one of the best I think. In previous years, when my sight was just a little better, I managed to climb all of the wild rocky peaks around the glen. Now sadly, my sight is so bad that their rocky summits and ridges are out of my reach, but I can still wander into the glen as I did with my wife back in December ….and still enjoy the experience greatly. This painting, created using for the most part, fine brushes and the aid of a powerful magnifier, is based on the kind of view we had as we sat in the glen, eating our lunch on what was my 62nd birthday.

‘Overlooking Loch Stack, Sutherland.’, Acrylic & Pastel, 2021, 80 x 80 cm
Catalogue number:439
Price: SOLD
Region: NW Highlands
About this painting:
In May 2021 we spent a very enjoyable day exploring the low tops to the NE of Loch Stack in Sutherland. The low, heavy dark cloud stayed firmly on the higher slopes of Ben Stack and Arkle but we managed to find a sheltered spot at just over 300m to sit and watch the changing light and conditions. This painting is the result.

‘Memories of a winter walk near Braemar’, Acrylic & Pastel, 2021, 80 x 80 cm
Catalogue number: 442
Price: SOLD
Region: Central Highlands
About this painting:
Some walks really stick in my memory and this day, spent walking the hills and glens outside of Braemar with a group of friends from the Air na Creagan mountaineering club, was one such occasion. We had descended out of quite dreadful conditions higher up and stopped in the glen for a short break. As we did, we were overtaken by a heavy snow shower that moved down the glen. This painting draws on those memories.

‘On the slopes of Mid Hill, spring’, Oil on canvas, 2021, 80 x 80cm
Ref: 444
Price: £2500 (including P&P within UK)
Region: Southern Highlands
About this painting:
This canvas is the first in a series of three paintings I completed recently, all based on the fabulous little circuit of hills above Glen Luss. We walk this circuit most years and I particularly love it in winter when the tops have a covering of snow and the lower slopes are bright with the colours of dead grass and bracken. This piece recalls a descent from Mid Hill with my good pal Guy. On top the weather had been quite ferocious, but as we got lower we moved from winter into spring.

‘An early winter view, Glen Luss’, Oil on canvas, 2022, 80 x 80 cm
Ref: 445
Price: £2500 (including P&P within UK)
Region: Southern Highlands
About this painting:
This is the second of the Luss Hills canvases. Based very loosely on the kind of view seen looking into Glen Luss from the lower slopes of Beinn Dubh, this piece is really about the kind of patterns of intense colour that I saw when we walked this way back in January this year.

‘A winter day near the summit of Beinn Dubh’, Oil on canvas, 2022, 80 x 80cm
Ref: 446
Price: £2500 (including P&P within UK)
Region: Southern Highlands
About this painting:
The third of the Luss canvases, this painting is about being up on the broad rough grass and heather covered tops of Beinn Dubh and Mid Hill on a winters day. As with the first two of the Luss canvases, this piece was created using thick traditional oil colour put down with broad coarse brushes to build the paint into a choppy rough surface.

‘Below the east ridge of Ben Lui, snow shower’, Acrylic & Pastel, 2021, 80 x 80 cm
Ref: 443
Price: £2500 (including P&P within UK)
Region: Southern Highlands
About this painting:
I started this painting many years ago after a particularly memorable day doing a winter scramble on the east ridge of Ben Lui. In its original form however, the painting didn’t really capture the feel and mood of the place and so it eventually got put to one side. I returned to it last year and almost completely re-worked it into this new form. The location is at the base of the steep east ridge of Ben Lui and there were I remember, snow flurries and breaks in the cloud. The light was superb and the huge bulk of the mountain as it rose above us made for a very daunting prospect …..but an exciting one none the less.

‘Towards Ben Lawers, winter’, Oil on canvas, 2022, 150 x 50 cm
Catalogue number: 447
Price: £3000 (including P&P within UK)
Region: Southern Highlands
About this painting:
In recent years we have made several visits to the small group of hills that lie just to the south west of Loch Tay. From their 700m tops you get fine views towards the bigger peaks of the Ben Lawers group, especially so in winter when their summits are caked in snow. Of course, even looking through a monocular, I don’t actually see any detail, just the tangled patterns of light, colour, rock, grass and snow.

‘Evening light, evening colours. Badcall Bay, Sutherland’, Acrylic & Pastel, 2022, 76 x 23cm
Catalogue number: 437
Price: £1250 (including P&P within UK)
Region: NW Highlands
About this painting:
In the last couple of years we have started to visit Sutherland, staying in a caravan set on the hillside overlooking the beautiful Badcall Bay. On a fine May evening, the low sun lights up the grass and gorse covered shore-line creating intense colour and deep shadow. This little painting tries to capture something of my view of it.

‘Towards the Bridge of Orchy Hills from Ghlas Bheinne’, Acrylic and Pastel, 2018, 76 x 23 cm
Ref: 398
Price £1250
Region: Southern Highlands
About this painting
Most years we take a walk up a small hill on the edge of Rannoch Moor. The views from its long undulating ridge are superb, especially so in winter when the bigger mountains all around are covered with snow. This painting is based on a view we had a couple of years ago and looks across to the Bridge of Orchy Hills.

‘Towards Beinn Leoid, Sutherland’, Acrylic & Pastel, 2018, 30 x 30cm
Ref: 399
Price £750
Region: North West Highlands
About this painting:
Beinn Leoid is a Corbett, (individual Scottish hill of between 2500 ft and 3000ft in height) and is situated in the remote and wild country of Sutherland. I’ve wanted to walk this hill for a good while now and a couple of years ago we finally reached it’s lonely summit.

‘Closing in, the south summit of Beinn Liath Mhor’, Acrylic and Pastel, 2018, 80×80 cm
Ref: 400
Price: Not Available
Region: North West Highlands
About the painting:
A few years ago Nita and I attempted to climb Beinn Liath Mhor, a Munro that lies to the north of Glen Carron. We thought we would have time to walk it’s fairly long ridge, but by the time we had reached it’s southern top, the bad weather forecast for the evening, had arrived ……six hours early! The cloud moved in rapidly, building up on one side of the ridge before periodically spewing over to cover everything. It was obvious that our plans had to change and a retreat back down to the car was called for ……but not before we sat and watched the weather close in. This painting is the result of our time at the southern summit of Beinn Liath Mhor.

‘A Coigach landscape, January’, Acrylic & Pastel, 2018, 30 x 30 cm
Ref: 408
Price £750
Region: North West Highlands
About this painting
In early January 2018 we drove up to the Stoer peninsular in Assynt. It was very cold and all the hills and mountains were covered in snow. As we made our way across the high ground on the road between Ullapool and Loch Assynt the snow was down to the road side and in the fading light of late afternoon the Coigach landscape looked just spectacular. This little painting tries to capture something of the scene.

‘At the Stoer Head’, Oil on canvas, 2018, 120 x 120 cm
Ref: 409
Price: £7000
Region: North West Highlands
About this painting:
This is one of my rare larger canvases and the painting is based on visits we’ve made to the wild and remote Stoer Peninsular in Assynt. Two years ago, Nita and I spent a day slowly wandering the cliff tops here and I spent many hours making sound recordings that captured this fine sunny May day, the sound of the sea crashing at the base of the cliffs, the Skylarks singing high above and calls of the Fulmars as they landed on the rocky ledges below us. This painting tries to allow the viewer a glimpse straight down to the crashing waves …..as well as conveying something of the huge space out over the sea.

‘A winter walk, east of the Drumochter Pass’, Acrylic & Pastel, 2019, 76 x 23cm
Ref: 416
Price £1250
Region: Central Highlands
About this painting:
The hills to the immediate east of the Drumochter Pass are bleak and wild , more a moorland plateau than individual hills. There are though, two summits that rise a little above the rest and these are Munros. On an early spring day, with soft snow underfoot and a biting east wind, my friend Guy and I set out to walk these two ‘easy’ summits. Suffice it to say, it turned out to be a very hard and tiring walk….and that is putting it mildly! This is one of two paintings I’ve done that look back on what for us was quite an epic day.

‘Early evening, Loch Glendhu, Sutherland’, Acrylic & Pastel, 2019, 30 x 30 cm
Catalogue number: 417
Price £750
Region: North West Highlands
About this painting
We have visited the Kylesku area of Assynt and Sutherland a good number of times now, slowly exploring it and climbing it’s various hills. Last May, we spent a day walking tracks above and along the northern side of Loch Glendhu. It had been a day of heavy rain and indeed, snow showers, interspersed with bright bursts of sunshine. This painting is based on the kind of scene we had as the low evening sun found a break in the heavy clouds, setting the hillsides alight with colour.

‘Canisp, a winter afternoon’, Oil, 2019, 80 x 80cm
Catalogue number: 422
Price: £2500
Region: North West Highlands
About this painting
This is one of a series of paintings that I’ve completed over the last few years, based on my various visits to Canisp. Although not as shapely as some of it’s close Assynt and Coigach neighbours, it’s wild location, set well back from the main road north and the very rugged nature of the surrounding terrain, make it my favourite Assynt peak.

‘A November afternoon, near Kylesku, Sutherland’, Acrylic & Pastel, 2019, 76 x 23cm,
Catalogue number: 428
Price: £1250
Region: North West Highlands
About this painting
Back in 2017 I started work on a large-scale audio-visual piece, based on a walk we did along the shores of the sea lock at Kylesku in Sutherland. I had to re-visit the location on several occasions in order to make the sound recordings. One of these trips was in November 2018 and the weather was beautiful with clear skies and little wind. This painting tries to capture something of the fabulous late autumn colours that day.

‘Canisp, winter’, Oil on canvas, 2019, 80 x 80cm
Catalogue number: 429
Price: SOLD
Region: North West Highlands
About this painting
This is another painting of what is now a series of 8 canvases I’ve done based on one of my favourite Assynt hills, Canisp. It’s a great hill in all seasons, but it did look particularly fine under winter conditions back in January 2018.

‘Towards the Mamores, a showery summers day’, Acrylic & Pastel, 2014, 76 x 23 cm
Catalogue number: 319
Price: £1250 including P&P within the UK
About this painting:
I often say to people that I see the landscape very much in terms of pattern. This painting is based on a day we had walking the hills above Glencoe when the broken cloud cover gave a constantly changing patchwork of light, shade and colour. This is definitely one of my more abstract Scottish landscape paintings but I think it captures my memories of the day very well.

‘Approaching Stob Dubh, Glen Coe’, Acrylic & Pastel, 2014, 80 x 80 cm
Catalogue number: 328
Price: SOLD
About this painting:
We’ve walked the summits of Buachaille Etive Beag on several occasions and experienced them in different conditions. On this occasion we were treated to a constantly changing view as thick cloud on the northern side of the hill regularly bubbled up and spilt over the ridge and summit ….before sinking back again. However good a bright clear day in the hills is, it is these more changeable conditions that so often give the best and most exciting views.

‘On Beinn Damh, Torridon’, Acrylic & Pastel, 2015, 148 x 210 mm
Catalogue number: 346
Price: £455 including P&P within the UK
About this painting:
As much as I like to climb hills in reasonable weather, there are times when you just have to go even if there is a good chance that you’ll see nothing the whole day. When we climbed Beinn Damh at the head of Loch Torridon the other year, this was very much the case. The cloud was very low and not forecast to lift the whole day, but we were on holiday and just wanted to get out. Nothing though, when it comes to Scottish mountain weather can be that exact and as we plodded along the broad stony ridge in thick mist…..everything suddenly changed. Suddenly we could see the summit and our route ahead along the narrowing ridge …it was amazing. We stood there with broad smiles on our faces and watched the scene for five or so minutes before the cloud once again enveloped the hill. We hoped that it might clear again once we were at the summit and we sat in the cool damp murk for almost an hour waiting and hoping ….but the top never cleared during the rest of the day. It was a great walk though and that five minutes when the cloud did clear made it very special indeed.

‘A January evening in the North Ayrshire Hills’, Acrylic & Pastel, 2015, 30 x 30 cm
Catalogue number: 348
Price: SOLD
About this painting:
This quite abstract Scottish landscape painting is based on a scene I experienced while out walking in our local North Ayrshire hills ….above Largs. We’d gone out on an exceedingly cold early January day the other year and planned quite a lengthy wander around some of the tops. The snow however was deep and difficult to walk in and we never managed half of what we’d planned. But it didn’t matter as the hills and views out over the Firth of Clyde were spectacular. As we plodded our way back in the late afternoon, the sun dipped out to the west and for a short time the snow covered hills around us turned a rich coppery pink colour. I tried to photograph the scene but the images didn’t do it justice…..so this painting is about my memories of those few minutes standing in the pink snow of the North Ayrshire Hills.

‘Winter afternoon, the Luss Hills’, Acrylic & Pastel, 2015, 30 x 30 cm
Catalogue number: 349
Price: £750 including P&P within the UK
About this painting:
The two wee hills of Beinn Dubh and Mid Hill that sit on the west side of Loch Lomond above the village of Luss always make for a fine walk. This more abstract little landscape painting is based on a view you see only if you descend from the main path, a short way from the small cairn marking the summit of Beinn Dubh. The steep little gully collects snow and at times there can be a very large drift here and it is well worth the short steep little detour to see it.

‘Below Canisp, passing hail shower’, Oil on canvas, 2015, 80 x 80 cm
Catalogue number: 350
Price: SOLD
About this painting:
I completed this painting last summer, just a few months after we’d done a magnificent circular walk over Canisp in Assynt. The weather really wasn’t the best but we did experience some amazing conditions and views that day, although the high winds prevented us from reaching the summit alas. It’s a very wild and ancient landscape surrounding this hill with huge areas of broken boulders, bare rock and rough grass and heather. After descending from the broad ridge of the hill, we were caught in some really heavy and quite violent hail showers. This piece is painted in traditional oil colour using thick paint applied with a very large horse hair house painting brush.

‘Squall, on the edge of Rannoch Moor’, Acrylic & Pastel, 2015, 30 x 30 cm
Price: SOLD
About this painting:
As anyone who reads my blogs will know, we walk bits of the West Highland Way quite regularly…..usually to get to or back from a hill. I’m hoping this year to put together a series of images of paintings based on views from, or above this famous long distance path. I have a number of works already completed, images of which could be included and this painting is one of them.
It is based on a view we had as we were walking back along the WHW between Ba Cottage and the Glencoe ski centre. We had been walking the hills to the west of the path and were at the end of what had been a long day when we saw this heavy shower moving towards us across the edge of Rannoch Moor.

‘Below Clach Lethaidh, winter’, Oil on canvas, 2014, 80 x 80 cm
Catalogue number: 312
Price: £2500 including P&P within the UK
About this painting:
This was one of the first of my new oil paintings and was completed about eighteen months ago in 2014. Like the more recent pieces, it was created using thick oil paint dragged into place using an old horse hair house painting brush. The coarse nature of the brush gives the paint a much textured surface which I particularly like in this more abstract landscape painting. The composition is roughly based on the view you get when looking across to the mountains of the Blackmount and in particular, the huge snow covered slopes of Clach Lethaidh. This is a bold and quite striking piece that looks particularly good on a big wall with some space around it.

‘Approaching Harris, a damp May evening’
‘Approaching Harris, a damp May evening’, Graphite on paper, 2013, approximately 125 cm x 85 cm
Catalogue number: 310
Price: SOLD
About this drawing:
The title of this piece says everything really! This was the start of what was to be a very drich couple of weeks on Harris. We were sat in the cafe onboard the ferry from Uig to Tarbet, eating chips and supping a beer and looking out over the choppy seas. It was misty and damp and we were looking for our first sight of the islands. As I sat there I suddenly realised that the scene before me would make an excellent graphite drawing and I started this large piece on the dining table of the wee cottage we’d rented for the holiday. I’ve done a good number of these quite large graphite drawings ….but I think that this is my favourite.

‘Early spring, above Drumochter’, Acrylic & Pastel, 2011, 80 x 80 cm
Catalogue number: 193
Price: £2500 including P&P in UK
About this painting:
I did this painting a few years ago after a wonderful walk up in the Drumochter Hills. It was actually the day we reached the summit of our 100th Munro and to do this on a perfect late winter day made it very special. The upper slopes of the hills were still well covered in snow and ice but further down this was melting back to create large patches of white against the sunlit hillside and glen below. It was an amazing patchwork of light and colour and I’ve tried to capture something of it in this painting.

‘Snow, rock and water, Harris, May’, Graphite on paper, 2013, 70 x 70 cm
Catalogue number: 304
Price: £695 including P&P in UK. This drawing is supplied mounted but not framed.
About this drawing:
This was one of a number of drawings I did after our two week long stay on Harris back in May 2013. It was officially our “summer” holiday but the weather had other ideas! Amidst the many days of rain and high winds, we also had a day of snow! This drawing was based on a view we had while walking in the hills the day after the snowfall. The snow was thawing quickly and this stream was in spate…..the patterns of the white water against the rocks mimicking the patterns of the snow against the crags on the hills behind.

‘Breaking mists, Isle of Arran’
‘Breaking mists, Isle of Arran’, Acrylic & Pastel, 2013, 30 x 30 cm
Catalogue number: 289
Price: SOLD
Region: Islands
About this painting:
We visit the Isle of Arran once or twice each year and it never ceases to amaze me how spectacular a place it is. This small scene was based on a day we spent walking on Goat Fell when there was patchy low cloud drifting up Glen Rosa and then breaking over The Saddle into Glen Sannox. Although it often shrouded Cir Mhor, the Witches Step and the other main Arran peaks, strangely it never filled in completely at the summit of Goat Fell …the highest peak on Arran.

Price: Framed £750, Unframed £685

About this painting:
Although much of the time we spent on Harris this year was wet, we did have several very fine days. On one of these we spent the day visiting some of the wonderful beaches on the west coast of the island. This slightly abstract piece is one of several paintings I’ve completed based on these fabulous beaches.

‘A winter morning, east of Drumochter’
‘A winter morning, east of Drumochter’, Acrylic & Pastel, 60 x 30 cm
Ref: 211
Price: SOLD
About this painting:
Region: Central Highlands
This painting is based on a very cold day I spent with my mate Guy the other year on the hills to the east of Drumochter Pass. Once you’ve hauled yourself up the steep flanks of these hills from the road, it’s a high, bleak and very wild area of undulating moor. Two of the higher bumps are classified as Munros and lie I guess, about four miles apart. We walked the two ‘hills’ on a layer of snow that held your weight for an instant….and then gave way as you transferred your weight! It was very hard work especially as we were walking for much of the day into a very strong and bitterly cold wind. We were both exhausted by the time we got back to the car in the last light of the day and we both agreed that we might not return to these two hills ….but strangely enough we do both remember this very tiring day….it was a bit of an epic!

About this painting
Region: West Highlands
This is one of my new 80 x 80 cm paintings and is based on a day when we watched cloud break off of the summit of a snow topped Beinn Toaig. Painted with broad brush strokes this bold almost abstract piece does none the less well convey this very Scottish scene.
