Description
Kissing Trees, Fife, 2026 depicts the beautiful ‘kissing trees’ of Kinghorn. Someone at a local market recommended that I should paint them and I was intrigued. They are two Sycamore trees which lean together into a gentle embrace.
I am a visual artist based in Midlothian, Scotland. I create paintings of woodland landscapes and gnarled trees that I come across on my walks through nature. These woodlands are mainly in Scotland with some abroad in Europe and Canada. I make my work using water mixable oil paint on canvas to avoid extra fumes whilst working at my studio in Edinburgh.
Colour plays a very important role in these works. Warm and unusual hues of pinks, oranges and reds set off the lush green tones of the foliage around. I enjoy making drawings of animals using fine liner pens with some additions of paint. I particularly enjoy creating drawings of the native and plentiful wildlife in Scotland. Always, I am working to expand the selection of these animals.
The original painting is available to buy. Please contact me
