A Celebration of Glasgow

Here's my drawing of the War Memorial at Bearsden Cross (read more about it HERE)

This is shortly going to be part of a very special show called 'A Celebration of Glasgow', with over 200 paintings on exhibition this summer during the two weeks of the city's Commonwealth Games.  

The artists were given a broad brief to depict Glasgow in all its forms as part of a celebration of the city, its buildings, culture and history.  So it will be very interesting indeed to see how this has been interpreted by everyone when the show all comes together.

It runs from Saturday 19th July to Sunday 3rd August 2014 at the LEMOND GALLERY.

Also there will be my painting 'Shipbuilding on the Clyde', which I'm particularly fond of, and which was last exhibited at the Maclaurin Art Gallery in Ayr when it was selected for their open exhibition.  It shows HMS Duncan under construction, and I will also be showing a pastel study of the scene in the same exhibition.
