I am a Scottish based Artist working primarily with photos. I often attempt to show the world how I felt in those exact moments when the original photo was taken.

Edinburgh's skylines are up there with the most iconic. Seeing a stunning sunset/rise can reignite the life intae the weeriest of souls! I wished to tap into that sensation with this work. As if you could dive on in and float contently.

This is the second version of this work. The first is more subdued. I like to do more than one version instead of resorting to watermarks.I have proof it's my work and also have alternatives that can transform how the viewer interprets the art 😀 A glow inside us, Nov 25.

By having one thing be the sole focus of the work, I can find ways to compliment it. Be it intriguing shades of colour, or abstract shapes in which to elevate the scene. As with other artworks, I paired a night scene with a day scene to make it pop😎

I went full tilt with the autumnal vibes here as I wanted maximum cozy feels. In order to get the effect of the scene having lit up windows I overlayed multiples of a fireworks night photo that I hope sells the illusion yet remains arty.

I like to imagine what fictional scenarios would appear as if set in other cities. So here we have a Bladerunner-esque Edinburgh. Bleak, yet with an understated style. I purposely muted the colour scheme for a truly dystopian feel.

It can be tricky to keep a minimal colour scheme captivating. So I employ tactical manipulation in my art so that the scene will maintain folks attention. The intention here was to make it seem like the viewer is walking the path for a closer look.

This is a blend of wet night time imagery and dry afternoon. I wanted to create a fairytale aesthetic in this artwork. Haunting , but not chilling 👻 As withuch of my work it's not so much what the photos are yet what they combine as.

Style over substance can be a sugar rush, yet when you can achieve both, an artwork will stick in the mind far longer than a few likes ever could. Focusing on movement and stillness alike,both concepts compliment the other.

Eager to explore beyond Edinburgh city? Your cup filleth over! One such bounty is Jupiter Artland. The wide ranging installations dotted about the woods will delight the senses. The concept of this artwork was to capture that wonder you'll feel!

This work may exude driving hame vibes, yet was shot en route tae see Falkirk take on Hibs at the 'Bairnabeu' (a riff on Real Madrid's Bernabeu stadium fir the less fitbaw inclined!)

Besides all that, the aim was a sense of renewed hope going forward 😎

The wee alley is practically a stones throw fae me, yet it took me over a decade to shoot! It leads to an antique/curiosity shop, but the exterior is what truly caught my artistic eye. Far too many businesses take themselves too seriously so this was fun😀

There are times in my artistic life where a technique falls into place and I'm not sure how. Forever grateful all the same! At first this work seems to have little that stands out. Upon closer inspection,that which makes it special reveals itself.

By layering reflections over my images I can create other worldly scenery. Coupled with careful positioning of multiple photos and we find ourselves dropped intae a world worth fighting for💪

Did a re-watch of 28 years later. Those in the know might see a visual similarity. Nae spoilers of course! This walkway to Crammond Isle does disappear for hours at a time and unless you're prepared to wait, a not so luxurious boat ride is yer ticket aff!

This one has a patched together feel. This is often how my thought process operates. Not just for art, yet life itself. I don't have a photographic memory and for that I'm glad! There's plenty to spot, so it should hold up to repeat views.

A parent isn't supposed to have a favourite child. However an Artist isn't tied to such malarkey. This yin might just have knocked aff the last champ! The way it looks both in motion and suspended, as well as bursting with colour makes me proud☺️

The Fringe Festival was reported to be less busy than usual. I can attest, it certainly didn't feel that way😂 Still, there are genuine moments of unadulterated tranquility amongst the organized chaos. Here is my interpretation of one such moment.

Rather hypnotic; this one😵‍💫 The colours all understood the assignment. The work feels in perfect balance even though it's far from being symmetrical. This wasn't a perfect sunny day, yet with an artistic licence, anything is possible!

Depending on the scene the focal point varies. The sky dominates this work, so naturally I injected swathes of activity. To the point the trees and buildings play second fiddle. Yet they still play their part well!

Unrelated images which fit seamlessly is a technique I often dabble in. If it looks like a singular untouched work, then I've done my job. As the kids might say, the vibes are immaculate 😎

Your surroundings can blur into the background. You're so used to its charms that they get muddled. So this work's imagery is a bit further up my road down Stocky B, Edinburgh. I opted to revel in the sublime skylines that pepper the area.

I like windows and doors that are 'unconventional'. Maybe they make a building seem cheery;happy to see you! For this work, I opted to reflect that with chirpy colours, which welcome you with open arms.

The idea of a Little (insert country) within a city out with said country is bizarre. It's like being on a movie set that is rife with inaccuracies. Sure the food is on point as are the folk yet the vibe is infiltrated by the host nation. Still cool tho!

It's easy to keep your head down when wandering around town. When you gaze upwards the weirdest structures reveal themselves. This rooftop looked half finished. I haven't been back on years to see since I snapped the photo so perhaps things will be very different!

The whole putting a padlock of affection on a landmark has been replicated around the world. Yet l, to those involved, I doubt they care 😉 The act and passage of time is symbolic of enduring love and should be actively encouraged
