Jervis Bay, New South Wales, has been a family vacation spot for the artist Euan MacLeod.  Heavily textured surfaces and vigorous brushstrokes characterise his confident, deft approach to outdoor painting. This rapid painting gives a sense of both phantom figures and the immediacy of observed realities on a sunny beach.  Based in Australia, Macleod’s work gains sustenance from the landscapes of both his birthplace and his adopted home, and he has exhibited consistently in New Zealand and Australia throughout his career.
