  • Red deer painting

    January 13, 2016 /

    Colin has started 2016 with a big project… a new painting of some red deer making their way across a wintry mountain landscape.  This is going to be a large picture, with plenty of depth and drama.   Here it is in progress! Close-up of the foreground: There’s plenty more to do – acres of heather, he says!    You can watch for updates on Colin’s Facebook page if you like.

  • Black grouse – a new painting

    July 15, 2015 /

    Colin has been working on this painting of black grouse over the last couple of weeks – it was on his easel at the Scottish Game Fair, and it’s now finished. There’s a lovely iridescence in the male’s plumage, and the two greyhens are beautiful in their intricate camouflage.  The grass was probably the biggest headache – weaving it around to make it look real!
