Trevor Watson - Painter and Calligrapher
Trevor has been painting and creating Art for many years, he said to me when he moved into his house about 40 years ago and wanted some pictures for the wall, all the paintings that he liked he couldn't afford and all the ones that he could afford he didn't like, so he decided he better do some of his own! He's never stopped since and has never looked back.
He started by painting landscapes in watercolour and as he improved his enthusiasm and desire to improve led him to study Fine Art at Sunderland University to develop his style and improve his technique. He still uses watercolour but has moved onto mostly portraits and Calligraphy or a combination of both. But his desire to learn new techniques has led him onto finding new ways of using his Art and he now sells 'Embossed' greeting cards as well as his paintings and prints through local art fairs and a gallery in Edinburgh.
