This February, we are delighted to welcome Lara Scouller back for her second exhibition with The Scottish Gallery. Based in her Fife studio, she finds inspiration exploring her local beaches and shorelines, capturing the joy of experiencing sea life in detail.
My work is a direct response to the environment surrounding me on the east coast of Scotland. This coastal setting, alive with marine life, inspires my practice of drawing and painting ‘en plein air’. Chance encounters with sea life, seabirds and the unexpected beauty of beach finds imbue my work with spontaneity and inspire my compositions in the studio, bringing an element of discovery into each piece.
