What To Expect On Your Visit?

The studio is open year-round, with flexible hours. Contact me for the address and to arrange a time.

My studio is where I create original prints inspired by the stunning landscapes of Scotland's west coast and Northumberland. I'll share the places that inspire my work, and you can enjoy views of The Pavilion and Rothesay Bay while watching the ferry.

This is where the serendipity unfolds. Some days, it’s an organised gallery-like space; other days, the chaos of creative flow - ink-covered rollers, scattered ink palettes and plant material, a print in progress.

Find out about my printmaking techniques, the stories behind the prints; browse the walls and browsers; choose from gift collections and greeting cards that spill into my living room, blending home and gallery. Enjoy a cup of tea or glass of wine while you browse and chat.

Worldwide shipping available for prints and gifts you buy for your home from the Isle of Bute.

The printmaking process for this collagraph print 'On The Hunt II' was captured in my previous Northumberland studio.

If you're unable to visit in person, explore my work online or visit one of the galleries that carries my pieces. You’ll find a list of them here.

If you’re looking for recommendations while you’re visiting the island, I am happy to provide you with local tips - my favourite beaches, hill walks, archeological and historical sites and view points. I can tell you where I like to go for a great coffee with cake, where to find the best locally made ice-cream, where to buy the best local food produce or where to eat out.

It’s a great place to explore by bike, bus, or on foot and a car is useful for some places that aren’t on the bus route, or for the less energetic who aren’t hiking or cycling, or who have limited time.

You can read this blog post for starters.
