The Art Of Living...

Gillian McDonald

Gillian McDonald is an acclaimed watercolour artist who specialises in painting the remoter parts of the British Isles. From the Highlands and Islands of Scotland to the English moors and the rugged coastline of Wales, Gillian is to be found seeking out the  dramatic landscapes and seascapes which are the subject of her distinctive paintings.

Gillian’s brooding landscapes are rich in atmosphere, evoking a sense of isolation and solitude, and each image is brought alive by her appreciation of the interplay between light and the natural environment. Her innate understanding of the subtleties of different light effects and her bold use of colour are the hallmarks that make for the harmony of her highly collectable paintings and  prints.
