EXHIBITIONS

details to follow shortly ...

I have created illustrations for books and magazines (and am currently working on some illustrations for book projects of my own, the first of which 'A Shrew Danced On My Paintbox' is now available), and been involved in a number of public artworks and projects. Additionally, I had a brief unexpected and hugely enjoyable career as a wedding photographer, photographing over 100 weddings. 

As a member of Artmap Argyll, the artist's open studios network, I have taken part in a number of exhibitions, workshops and demonstrations in association with other Artmap Artists. I was Chairman from 2009 to 2012, and Vice-Chairman in 2013. Our workshops at 'The Best of The West Festival' (BOWFest) at Inveraray Castle, were a big hit.

My work is represented in many private collections in Britain, Europe, Australia, Canada and the United States.

GILL MACLEAN STEWART

Gill has always had a great love of flowers, and her understanding of plants and blooms is the essence of her life.

As a gardener, she is frequently seen tending to the Dove Cottage garden in Kilmartin, and has created a beautiful and restorative space, the centre of which is her studio space.

As a floral stylist, Gill is sought after to create flower displays for weddings and events, working at venues such as Inveraray Castle in Argyll to Powerscourt in Ireland - with an impressive list of locations in between.

As an artist, Gill has been selling her work - mostly completed  in oils and acrylics - through our galleries in South Kintyre and Mid Argyll. Influenced by the coastal landscape of Argyll, her work now frequently references the moods and volatile temperament of the sea.
