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

One Leg of Jeans

A couple of years ago I received a request from a writer in Aberdeen who'd discovered a new mode of transport, especially good for whizzing around on the Beach Boulevard. Trouble was - he needed to carry it through the busy town! So he asked me to make him a shoulder bag especially taylored to hold his mini-scooter.


My client brought with him an old pair of jeans and  - yes - I only needed to use one leg. I designed it, sewed in the zip and the D-rings but he supplied the strap.

Never give up on an old pair of jeans!
