Since Margaret Gibson’s retirement fifteen years ago, she has been painting with watercolours and acrylics. From this interest in colour and texture, she has developed a textile layering process which uses a range of fabrics and stitching to capture the vivid colours of our land and seascapes. Using a variety of textures provides an added dimension that gives depth to the work. This technique is particularly successful in portraying the different nuances of light on and through water.
