Walter S. Watson
|
I
was born in Glasgow, Scotland in 1945 and chose a scientific rather
than artistic career. My working life was spent in city hospitals
which was very fulfilling but left little opportunity for art. During
this time, I would paint very occasionally.
Following
retirement in 2005, we moved to St Andrews and I became fascinated
by the picturesque coastal towns and villages and by the big skies.
This has encouraged me to return to painting - now I need to paint!
Most
of my work is watercolour as I like the purity of the medium. However,
I have recently starting using acrylics and am really enjoying slapping
colour onto canvas for the first time.
Most
of my work has been exhibited in galleries in the east of Scotland
from Pitlochry down to Pittenweem.
10%
of any profit from the paintings goes to the Scottish charity, Marys
Meals.
So
a bit of a late developer, but I am very happy to have “rediscovered”
painting and I hope you enjoy the results. |
