Things I find interesting in the world of Art.


Tangalory Isles

This is one of my Tangalory Isles series of paintings. These are sort of mythical Scottish Islands, where everything is perfect, there are no midges, and possibly no other people, depending on how I feel. The title comes from misheard lyrics to an old Scottish tune:

“Sure by Tummel and Loch Rannoch and Lochaber I will go
By heather tracks wi’ heaven in their wiles.
If it’s thinkin’ in your inner heart the braggart’s in my step
You’ve never smelled the tangle o’ the Isles.”
