Artist’s Commentary

Having lived in Scotland for over a decade I see its beauty in the natural grit of everyday life, a Scotland absorbed in work and play, and at one with its environment. In Shipyards of Aberdeen the industrial life of the shipyards along the waterfront of Aberdeen is captured in collaboration with Naval Architect and Marine Consultant Company Tymor Marine; the hustle and bustle along the quay; swinging cranes hoisting and lowering, energetic stevedores loading and unloading, whistles blowing and horns booming, swooping and calling gulls close and afar.
