As one of Scotland's foremost wildlife artists, Georgina McMaster is passionate about animals and their importance to the environment.

As this is our first online exhibition, all works for this show will be published online at 10am on Saturday 25th April.

A recent move from Ullapool further north to Elphin in Sutherland has brought me even closer to some of my favourite sources of inspiration. With views of Cul Mor and Sula Bheinn literally on my doorstep and the, sometimes wild coast of Assynt only a short distance away.
I've had the chance to explore lochs, burns and rocky summits that I've never seen before and I feel very lucky to have settled in this special place.
I continue to be captivated by the unique quality of light in the north west highlands and islands no matter what the weather conditions are, there is always something new to find in this special landscape.
From the tranquil rock pools and shorelines of Iona and Eigg to the wild waves of Oldshoremore and Clachtoll, this exhibition reflects my ongoing fascination with the interaction between landscape, water, and the elements.

The exhibition Highland Journeys is based on a series of excursions and adventures into the highland wilderness. From the high peaks of the Fisherfield mountains to the remote shoreline of Wester-ross.
Staying in bothies and camping in my tent enabled me to venture deep into some of the remotest regions of the highlands. Sometimes the expeditions involved fording rivers and long arduous climbs up spectacular mountains.
In this exhibition I hope to convey my experience of the wild places and translate the sublime beauty of the mountains,rivers and coastline of a truly spectacular part of the world.

One of Scotlands most vibrant landscape painters, Judith uses bold, vigorous, rhythmical strokes of impasto paint combined with delicate brushwork to give an exciting texture and a sense of abstraction to her work. This vivid collection of works is based on Judiths travels on the North Coast 500 as she has been inspired by the breath taking variety of astonishing mountains, rugged coastlines, and isolated moorland on the road, as well as Scotlands heritage and history and this is reflected in her work. Judiths work will be complemented with works by one of the countrys most gifted ceramicists, Anne Morrison.
28th April - 27th May 2018
We are delighted to be exhibiting our 4th solo show of Georginas work since taking on the gallery and look forward to welcoming her back to what is always a busy and very popular show.
Georgina is one of the countrys top wildlife artists and no-one can match her bold and expressive animal paintings. Every work captures the colours, character and life of each animal in a way others cannot match meaning Georginas work is highly prized among collectors worldwide.
Having had a baby girl in January 2017, Georginas recent study trips have been closer to home but that has not restricted the range of animals she has painted. This solo exhibition is a fantastic opportunity to see an eclectic range of Georginas most recent work, capturing some wonderful depictions of animals. She has fun with the titles of each painting, sometimes giving them a name that reflects their personality and other times it will be a topical theme, a place or even a title from a song.
