Chasing Rainbows: Colin Halliday

2 - 26 May 2017

Chasing Rainbows is a new series of plein - air paintings by Colin Halliday, celebrating nature and the intimate landscapes and places that we can all relate to. 

 

There are no places of major significance rather a celebration of what is around us all, Nature, a pure visual, sensational and emotive pleasure.

- Colin Halliday, 2017

 

Halliday continues to work directly from nature, outdoors, using a ‘wet-on-wet’ technique. However, he has reincorporated paintbrushes back into his work, alongside the use of a palette knife, and extended his colour palette, creating greater contrast and complexity to the surface texture.
