Black Cuillins -78cm x 63cm - oil on board
Allan MacDonald's landscapes are being increasingly recognised and sought after by collectors throughout the country. His work has an almost spiritual feeling for the power of nature. This is combined with a vast knowledge and feeling for colour and oil paint, and an ability to capture a divine almost magical instant in a landscape. There is something is his work that makes his seas endless and energetic and his mountains so mountainous, sometimes sinister and sometimes glowing with light. There is alwasy something bigger than canvas and paint in MacDonald's work.
