Road Trip to Finsbay Gallery on Harris

Out of the blue, back in November 2023, I got a phone call from Valerie-Anne Ruffles, owner of Finsbay Gallery on the Isle of Harris, asking if I’d be interested in showing my work there this season. Val had seen my painting, Mara, which was an entry in the Highland Art Prize, and contacted me […]

My First Solo Show – MARA

From 16th July to 18th August, Resipole Studios Art Gallery hosted an exhibition of my most recent paintings. It was amazing to have so many of my artworks fill one of the gallery spaces. It was a little bit nerve-wracking too, because it’s not just a painting hanging on the wall but a very personal […]

Creatives

Kevin is a professional freelance photographer, and although based on Ardnamurchan, his […]
