Slow Down and Look

I am a full-time artist working at home in Stonehaven, N.E. Scotland: selling work as a painter, writer and maker both online and through local exhibitions.

I am trained but prefer to remain UNTAMED, Unframed, Unconstrained and Unconventional. Here you will see art in progress: you can buy my finished paintings etc through the gallery link on the right ~ Bern Ross

Every Day, Any day

Inspiration for a painting - given the time and freedom of expression...



Silly how it looks dark, but that's where the skill of an artist creates a wonderful picture. Hopefully.

Loosen Up

I decided I must do lots of quick drawings that don't matter so I dug out an old roll of wallpaper. It was very liberating because I didn't have to worry about making a mess or ruining an expensive piece of cartridge paper, I could just let loose and do what I liked on it. As it happened, I liked!

Paintings on the Go

Here are two very unfinished paintings. The dogs looked like sheep at first and are gradually starting to come to life but ooh, they make it difficult. Their owner might prefer a photo . . . but I'll persevere.

The rocky seascape is much better than this now and will soon have a title and a reason detre (sorry can't do the accents with this keyboard).

And today I made two Christmas puddings complete with beer and brandy and wishes thrown in.
