1.Current collection of Edinburgh oil paintings "Evolving Moods"

Once a year Primrose creates a showcase of new oil paintings devoted to the Edinburgh’s beautiful landscape. In his sought-after current artworks, he captures warm autumnal tones to cool, glistening wintry streams of light beyond the Scottish capital’s skyline, and evocatively captures the atmospheric transition of two contrasting seasons in the city.

His early morning and late afternoon glimmers of sunlight filter magically through the trees onto The Meadows, Bruntsfield Links and Inverleith Park - paintings range from stunning open vistas in a rich autumnal palette to sparkling, luminous impressions dancing on the snow in winter.

With tranquil reflections shimmering on Inverleith Pond, The Water of Leith and The Union Canal (around Polwarth), this sought-after collection concludes with a dramatic series of vivid, colourful sunsets and city skylines from Calton Hill and Arthur’s Seat.

2. Recent striking monochrome Indian inks of Edinburgh

Although Primrose’s latest‘Evolving Moods’ collection features his beautiful new oil paintings of the Scottish capital, we also have a lovely range of Jamie's recent monochrome works on paper of Edinburgh available.

N.B. These can be viewed online and in person at your convenience.

These striking Indian inks offer a timeless journey from the shadows of The Old Town and across Southside, Marchmont and The Meadows to the grandeur of the New Town and Stockbridge, through the streets and open spaces of Edinburgh in winter-time.

In addition to the architectural elements of his sought-after new drawings, Primrose skillfully experiments with mark-making and layering of Indian ink and white washes.

In his Old Town works, this creates a moody, historical snapshot, whilst in his New Town studies, Jamie beautifully portrays light and shade on the majestic Georgian streets and sparkling reflections on The Water of Leith.

His captivating vistas looking towards Edinburgh Castle from The Meadows, Bruntsfield Links, Arthur’s Seat and surrounding street scenes also have a wonderful atmospheric quality.

In Jamie's lovely range of available seascapes he captures fleeting streams of light on shimmering East Lothian beaches in wintertime including Tyninghame, Yellowcraigs, Gullane, North Berwick and The Bass Rock.

He presents a beautiful series of locations revisited at different times of the day, using varying colour palettes, offering a glorious range of tranquil late-afternoon reflections, vibrant sunsets and twilight vistas.

Jamie’s tempestuous Scottish West Coast seascapes are a wonderful contrast, with moody and dramatic scenes of ever-changing patterns of light.
