Bringing you the paintings of Alastair McDougall. Dive into the world of contemporary landscape art.
Any view of nature is transient, changing from one glimpse to the next, with infinite variety of colour and light which is simply not possible to capture in a photograph.
An Artist, standing in front of the canvas for hours, days, weeks, patiently developing the scene through imagination and artistry, can escape from the shackles of realism to present something evocative, to stimulate the viewers' senses and create the means of turning a space into a home.
I came to realise this through painting the Brecon Beacons, from all points of the compass at all times of day and in all seasons.
While my paintings still generally feature a place, the location is not now as important as everything else about the work........
ENJOY!

Painting on top of hills can be a challenge for Alastair McDougall, an artist known for his stunning Brecon Beacons paintings. The canvas often catches the wind, making it tricky to work. And, the sun comes and goes, racing across the sky, causing the shadows in his contemporary landscape art to change constantly. This dynamic environment adds an exciting element to his landscape paintings and watercolour art.

Each style has its place, and each produces different results. As an Alastair McDougall artist, my goal is to create landscape paintings that I enjoy and that evoke some memory. I explore various techniques, including watercolour art, and my pieces vary significantly in size, with some being 48" across and others just 10". My Brecon Beacons paintings reflect my passion for contemporary landscape art, showcasing the beauty of the scenery.

I have been painting and selling Brecon Beacons paintings and capturing the beauty of the surrounding area for years. This fabulous place, shaped by immense tectonic forces that bent the rocks millions of years ago, then further sculpted by kilometres-thick glaciers and their meltwaters. Today, it continues to inspire my contemporary landscape art, with oil paintings and watercolour art reflecting the stunning vistas that have been used by humans for thousands of years.
