Since when he has had an astonishing degree ofsuccess with his atmospheric paintings, primarily though not exclusively, ofthe Scottish landscape. This new show however ( Dundas Street, Edinburgh ) oflarge mo- nochrome drawings ofhis home town represents a real departure in his work, its complete omission ofany modern elements/people giving it a powerful sense of time- lessness, its topographical pre- cision usefully underscored by a boldly contemporary Indian ink/ wash technique that conveys the city’s atmospheric skyscapes.
