Former North Sea oilman Iain Carby gave up life on the rigs to follow a life long dream of becoming an artist. Just four years after completion of an Art Degree he has already made his mark as a leading contemporary painter.
Inspired by Catalonian Surrealist Miro, Iain's distinctive style reflects his lust for life and passion for warmer climates. Although Surrealist in its foundation, his work remains rooted in the landscapes where brilliant azure skies and bright patchwork fields are suffused with brushstrokes of pure liquid sunshine.
In a new, contemporary art space and studio Carby Art offers a unique gallery experience. Resident artist Iain Carby, famed for his vibrant landscapes and shoreline scenes, exhibits alongside international and local artists with sculpture, ceramics, jewellery and photography.
