About the Artist:
Following a successful career in commercial design, with a specialist fashion and textile pedigree, Stuart McAllister returned to his first love of creativity - painting.
Delving deep into the medium of paint has become not only a creative expression but also an artistic meditation on how expressive art has the capacity to inspire; to raise the spirits or simply bring about a smile. With a focus on manifesting ‘Light and Colour’ through the medium of paint, Stuart favours subjects that are light reflective as well as offering a myriad of colour manifestation and he particularly enjoys painting ‘en plein air’, when both the glorious Highland weather allows as well as on his numerous travels to paint in situ.
The current collection of paintings displays a diverse array of subject matter; whether it is Stuart’s passion for his surroundings in Highland Landscapes rendered in oils; his dramatic series of Still Life paintings; his evocative, nostalgic Figurative series or the expressive Seascapes collection, light through colour is evident in the works. Stuart’s paintings are now available as high quality, high resolution prints for the first time.
