This little painting, originally shown in the exhibition in March at ‘the gallery on the corner’, is one of my favourites and as such, I’ll be including it in the exhibition at Blairmore Gallery in a few weeks time. 

I often say to people that I think my best pieces are ones that are at the same time, Scottish landscape and abstract.  This little painting based on a day we had on Ben Lui, seems to me to fit this category.  Details of the Blairmore Gallery and my forthcoming exhibition can be found by following the link to the Blairmore Gallery website at the side of this page.

My apologies to those of you who visit my Face Book page, (Keith Salmon – Scottish Landscape Artist) as you will already have seen images of this recent painting.  For anyone else though, this is the very latest of my paintings ….completed earlier this week.  Over the last month or so I’ve completed four paintings all based on a walk / scramble we did on Ben Lui several years ago.  This piece  tries to capture something of  the descent from the higher snow covered east ridge back down into the more friendly grass covered glen below.  This painting is currently hanging in my studio along with around 20 other pieces.  If you’d like to see this and the other works, do visit my studio.
