Gillian McDonald is a sought-after watercolour artist who specialises in painting the more remote areas of the British Isles. From the Highlands and Islands of Scotland to the Black Mountains of South Wales she is to be found, often on horseback, seeking out the abandoned farms and dramatic landscapes which are the subject of many of her paintings.

After studying at a London art college, Gillian McDonald developed her love for watercolour in Indonesia before settling in Wales in 1983. Since then she has concentrated exclusively on this medium and has published over 100 prints in Limited Editions, many of which are sold out.

Gillian’s unusual and daring use of colour is her hallmark. Her innate feel for the tradition of the countryside and its old buildings, the vibrancy of her flowers, and the drama of her skies are the constituents which make her originals and Limited Edition prints so collectable in Britain, Europe and the USA.
