Jacqui gillen art

I started painting at the start of last year as a means of escapism from a challenging time for my family, and discovered a love for recreating scenes from the unique soulful, landscape of the north west coast of Scotland.
I mostly paint in oils and enjoy working on ocean scenes where I can experiment with vibrant colours and reflections of light.

As a family, we love to travel, however are always drawn back to the drama and sense explosion along Scotlands west coast.

Translating memories ,visual and emotional, onto canvas is a privilege and joy.
