Inspiration for Lesley McLaren contemporary paintings and limited edition prints comes from the Scottish Borders countryside. Lesley endlessly roams the Scottish Borders countryside where she lives, collecting images in her sketch book and on camera. It is always her intention to capture, and then recreate on canvas, the essence and drama of breathtakingly beautiful Scottish Border countryside.
Talking about her art work Lesley says: 'A painting is the showcase for my quiet observations - the blackbird who hops in my studio every day for his lunch, bulky black and white cows meandering up a green hill , whispering silver birches reaching for a black thundery sky. Waiting and watching for a glimpse of drama .... I can for example enjoy an out of body experience whilst absorbing the visual spectacle of pink lichen growing on an old Scots pine.'
Lesley McLaren sometimes finds that her best art work often emerges after days of mistakes, hair pulling, sometimes tears and endless scrubbing out. She says creating art can be torturous and something which is not easily shared, then ... a wee chink of light appears on the canvas as though it had always been there.
