"Serenity" - Ethereal vistas of Edinburgh
Friday 4th - Saturday 12th July 2008
The Dundas Street Gallery, Edinburgh

***PRIVATE VIEWS***

Friday 4th July 6pm - 9.30pm
Saturday 5th July 11am - 3pm

You are welcome to join the artist for refreshments at the private viewings.

"Serenity" features over 50 breathtaking new oils and striking Indian inks of the capital.

Jamie’s trademark of capturing the unique changing light, atmosphere and colours from the sky onto the landscape is beautifully showcased in his work, as he focuses on winter light at its most dramatic and on the most transient, atmospheric times of day - sunrise and sunset.

In his highly sought-after ethereal cityscapes Jamie captures the early morning light and mist looking towards The Pentlands and rising over Arthur’s Seat and Calton Hill, and the tranquil shimmering dawn reflections on The Shore and The Water of Leith.

He also focuses on the twinkling of the first evening lights against the bold silhouette of the city’s magnificent architecture and on vivid powerful sunsets in the evening winter sky. Towards twilight, he then epitomises the very last glimmers of light shining through towards some of the city’s finest iconic viewpoints and lesser-known spectacular vistas in both the Old and New Town - producing a wonderful serene quality to his original artworks.
