Morag Young
Organic & experimental
I have lived for most of my life on the remote west coast of Scotland - with my family originating in the Outer Hebrides.
While I do create preliminary sketches on location, my paintings often come to life organically.
My sketches serve as a guide, but my imagination ultimately shapes the composition.
I take pleasure in the physical art of painting and enjoy experimenting with different techniques such as layering, tone, colour temperature and opacity.
Our response to visual art is similar to our response to music. Abstract art evokes emotions and themes that cannot be expressed in words. The true meaning of a painting is only realised when someone who views it connects with it.
The majority of my work is finished on wooden panels.
I studied at Leith School of Art in Edinburgh and continue to exhibit in chosen galleries.
