Painted from the shore
Mairi Calder paints from a wooden hut above the beach at Sanna, on the far west of Ardnamurchan. She works on several canvases at once, outdoors for the first layers and in the studio for the last, sometimes over a whole winter.
The paintings in Tidewater were made over two years of watching the same stretch of water: in sun, in squalls and in the long blue evenings of June.
Six of the larger works are shown in the front room, the smaller boards in the hall and on the stairs.
