Callum Innes

CalIum Inne's 'Exposed Paintings' first captured my attention about 8 years ago whilst completing my degree, and I still now feel a connection to these beautiful paintings. They  are created through a process of layers of paint being first applied, then removed with turpentine , with  traces of colour remaining on the surface. The paintings therefore contain evidence of their own making, embedding them with a sense of their own history. For me the  images evoke landscape and light, horizons and seas and emotions.
