About Me

My photo
Ralph
Ralph now resides in the Fife village of Freuchie, a short distance from the Forth Rail and Road Bridges, and from his birthplace of Rosyth. Ralph settled in Fife in 2006, after some 40 years of residence in different places around Scotland, where he worked as a minister of religion and then as a teacher. He now paints as a vocation, and is inspired by the beauty of his surroundings - natural and structural. Ralph's artwork is a vibrant and eclectic mix of Landscape Paintings, Seascape Paintings, Abstract Paintings, Still Life Paintings, People Portraits and Animal Portraits. His favoured medium is acrylic. He also uses pastel. This variety ensures that Ralph's work is alway fresh and original. Ralph has never been to art-school and has not received professional training. His work is organic and comes from his heart. He has a unique and insightful appreciation of his locale. All this makes his work feel familiar yet stirring to the viewer.
