The Eric Auld Collection

Welcome to my collection of original painting and prints. Most of the pictures and prints are studies of the North East of Scotland, but some are taken from travels afar. I hope that you find something of interest.
Sixty Years A Painter

Sixty Years A Painter

Eric Auld an Aberdonian who, throughout his lifetime, has created in paint the wonderful values seen in his city and surrounding countryside. His inspiration stems from the enjoyment of portraying the rocks of coast or hill, the contrasts of sea, river and loch along with the infinite variations of North East weather. The city with its many virtues has been a fascination for the artist. The architecture, the institutions and industry have all been depicted in his many compositions.

The valleys of Dee and Don have also provided many favourite images especially those noteable hills, Lochnagar and Bennachie. Further afield his travels have taken in most every corner of Scotland, resulting in a considerable body of work.
