Sheila MacLean - Artist

You are here: Home > Featured Arts / Crafts > Sheila MacLean

Specialising in contemporary Scottish landscapes
As a Gael, I am continually drawn towards the landscape of home and the Gaelic language which defines its timeless beauty, colour and form. My work is an expression of what that evokes in me  fragments of words and memory; a fusion of land and skies and sea; escaping to a place of changing moods where always, in my minds eye, I see the light in the west.

Sheila MacLean belongs to Wester Ross in the Scottish Highlands and has ties to the Outer Hebrides. She currently lives in Edinburgh. She specialises in contemporary Scottish landscapes which capture the translucent quality of  light and exhibits her originals and prints throughout Scotland. In 2000 Sheila was selected by Scottish Cultural Enterprise to take part in their millennium project Scotlandís Year of the Artist. Working with the community of her native Lochcarron in Wester Ross, she delivered the Stromemeannach Project and Community Book of the Lochcarron Area.
