WHAT HE DOES
For the past thirty years, Jim has focused his paintings on the Scottish landscape and his work is most recognizable for the way he beautifully captures the atmosphere and light of our mountains and forests. He works mostly in watercolour now and enjoys the spontaneity and unpredictability it offers. However, Jim is comfortable with other media including pen and ink. He is also highly experienced in Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator and Corel Painter work
Jim exhibits regularly and his paintings can be seen in galleries around the country. His work is much sought after at home and abroad including Ireland, Spain, New Zealand, the USA and China.
