RORY MACDONALD: Blue Valentine and other paintings

Rory Macdonald's intention in these eight works is to combine traditional modes of paintings with a play in scale and context that makes the work speak to a contemporary viewer. It is the desire to play, an excitement in the craft and empathy for the subject that makes Macdonald paint. The results bridge centuries like no other contemporary Scottish artist.

Rory Macdonald studied Art History at St Andrews University and trained in the studio of his parents, Alan and Carolynda MacDonald. Since then Rory has been represented in private collections worldwide and been exhibited in the UK, USA and Australia.
