A joyful exhibition exploring the relationship between water and it’s environs through the seasons. The everchanging light and moods of rivers, lochs and coastlines provide a backdrop to the abundant life that water supports. 

This exhibition focuses on the interconnectedness of the ecosystem, the beauty and variety of life beside bodies of water and the emotional and spiritual healing and nourishment that comes from living beside waterways. 

As an artist who is fascinated by water, coastlines and islands I love a sweeping coastal vista and crashing waves but I also find myself pulled into the details: rockpools, shorebirds, seaweed and shells. 

Rivers and lochs, beaches and waves,waterfalls and wetlands all feature in a colourful collection of  acrylic and pastel paintings and collagraph prints.

From wading birds in the shallows to  abandoned fishing boats and rocks smoothed by the waves, every subject shares a connection with water, the source of life.
