ABOUT THE ARTIST

Sheila Fowler is a popular Scottish artist working from her studio on the south side if Glasgow.

She paints in oils, exploring spontaneous colour mixing and mark making with paint.   Regular trips to Arran and other west coast Scottish islands allow her to capture the beauty of rugged beaches, fields and hills.  She also loves the abundance of wildflowers on beaches and in hedgerows .   Sketches, photos and the special memory of being to those places are inspiration back in the studio.

Sheila’s coastal and landscape paintings are an emotional response to the places she has visited.

Sheila also enjoys painting still life.  Paintings of flowers in vases are carefully composed.   Often painted on a simple background, the beautiful flowers and foliage take centre stage and she uses brush strokes and palette knife to emphasise the colours of the flowers and bring them to life.

I enjoy painting a range of canvas sizes.  SMALL PAINTINGS are affordable and they are perfect for gifting for a special occasion.   

MEDIUM and LARGER canvases are popular too.   

COMMISSIONING A PAINTING  I enjoy working on commissions.   I am happy to work on a painting of any size.  I am often asked about the commission process.  Paintings take around 6 weeks from planning to final framed painting.  Here is the link to view more information and some examples:  COMMISSION A PAINTING
