JAMES FULLARTON

Thompson’s Galleries proudly present the latest work of James Fullarton in his ninth solo exhibition in nearly twenty years with the gallery. Featuring landscapes across the Scottish countryside, dappled groves, grazing cattle, placid marinas and breathtaking still life. In this exhibition he delivers yet another varied and stunning suite of work to be enjoyed.

Today, James Fullarton is regarded as one of ’s leading contemporary painters, uncompromising in his standard of work and always individual in both thought and practice. He is famed for his powerful style of skilled fluid brushwork, strong colour and broad palette. Working in both oil and acrylic, Fullarton has gained acclaim for his nimble skill set, applying himself to en plein air landscape and harbour scenes, as well as still life and portraiture.

Vibrant colour, bold compositions and expressive handling of thick impasto paint are typical features of this prolific artist. Working directly from the subject matter, James draws inspiration from the ever-changing light and its effects on everyday objects, allowing him to develop his ideas quickly on canvas. With prominent large brushstrokes and a brilliant eye for colour, James is often described as a modern-day Colourist. Works can vary from small studies, rapidly executed in a spontaneous manner, to very large landscape paintings or dramatic still life compositions.

James has enjoyed a long and successful career with many solo shows. His work is sold in a number of galleries across Scotland and England and has been acquired by public, private and corporate collections worldwide.
