Gina Wright, Scottish Artist
Gina is a full time, professional artist working in pastels and oils to paint landscapes and nature. These paintings reflect her love of the Scottish landscape and capture its fleeting moods. Other inspiration comes from trips to the Scottish west coast islands and trips abroad, especially to Venice.
Gina is fortunate to have a shore side studio in Pittenweem, with views out over the Forth estuary. There are great opportunities to work ‘en plain air’, and constant inspiration from changing tides and light.
Gina has exhibited in various group exhibitions and in 2003 she had her first solo exhibition at the Pittenweem Arts Festival. Since then she has exhibited every year and celebrated 20 years in 2022.
Some of Gina's work in progress and studies will be posted on Instagram.
