Painting Paradise Exhibitions


Scottish artist, writer and broadcaster Lachlan Goudie returns to The Scottish Gallery with Painting Paradise.

Painting Paradise is divided into five sections. First, the results of a short residency in the New Town of Edinburgh that produced an elegant series of architectural interiors. A series of still lifes, Goudie’s chief studio occupation, follow. From the city and studio, the exhibition then journeys to the Highlands and Western Isles; a commission in Inverness-shire gave Goudie the chance to work deep in ancient woodlands and capture the autumn colours of rolling countryside, and in Barra he captured the fresh, Atlantic atmosphere. The exhibition continues with work made in the South of France in Autumn 2021 where views through open-shuttered windows and down to the Cote d’Azur capture the high colour and heat of the sun. Finally, he captures the palm trees, distant mountains and towering skies over the Indian Ocean of Mauritius.

This is an exhibition of paintings which Goudie found impossible to create two years ago. Painting Paradise is that dream made real, an exhibition inspired by a long-postponed painting expedition to the tropics as well as several other painted journeys undertaken during the last 18 months of liberty.
