The paintings that never were
What the hell was I thinking?! How self-doubt stole my paintings.

Not the summer we planned
I have a rather poorly husband at the moment, but have been able to squeeze in a little experimentation with oil and cold wax.

Watercolour sketches
I really do find watercolour one of the hardest and most unforgiving mediums to use. Having the right paper and good brushes is a good starting point and good quality paints of course.

Eyes wide open
I’m in a fallow period at the moment art-wise and I know that this is a normal and necessary part of the creative process.

Portraits
Some of the exercises from Pauline Agnew’s Expressive Portrait class that I recently enrolled in.

In Conversation – a short documentary
A ten minute short film about myself and two other local artists.
Hi, I’m Glenda
I am an artist and web/graphic designer living in Scotland’s most southerly village near the Mull of Galloway.
I live ten minutes walk from the beach and living on a long narrow peninsula means there are lots of beaches and cliff top walks within a few miles of my home.
My paintings are influenced by the landscape, but also by the stories of my past and the healing and therapeutic benefits that I have discovered through the process of art journaling.
I love to create strong, colourful abstract paintings using acrylics and oils. I don’t work to commission, preferring to be free to let my intuition guide me.
