“As my painting styles from my various genres gradually merge over time into what has been described as “Scottish Impressionism” it would be remiss of me not to ascribe the huge influence of Monet in my work. Most recently I have attempted a series of waterlily paintings certainly inspired by Monet but also to try and understand with some depth his fascination for the subject. I am fortunate to live close to the lilypond in St Andrews botanic gardens and so able to visit often taking in the effects of changing light and the changing subject as the pads emerge with an early iridescence, massing green and flowering later in the year. My own fascination with reflections and light and shade make this an irresistible subject marking the time of day and time of year with canvases large and small.”
