A few weeks ago I was emailed by a lady from Catalan TV who wanted to interview and film me as part of a piece she was covering about artists on Skye (in English with Catalan subtitles) - and here it is! Click on the link below to watch :) ... and the picture below is the completed one that I was filmed creating on the day. http://www.ccma.cat/tv3/alacarta/blog-europa/artistes-dins-el-paisatge/video/5755726/
Oil on wood panel, 106 x 63 cm, 2015. This painting was inspired by a scene in the movie "Grand Budapest Hotel". The two protagonists are travelling on a train, crossing winter melancholic landscapes, covered by snow and with few leafless trees emerging from it. The scene gives a sense of expectation, and what is dead in it suggests a new beginning.
