This exhibition, Cuillin Bantock’s fourth at Highgate Gallery, will be the culmination of sixty five years of
experience as a visual artist.
Bantock’s work is all landscape-based. Life-long familiarity with a particular coastal sand-dune system in North
Wales is a persistent point of reference. His choice of media is wide-ranging and includes oil paint, acrylic, gouache,
conte and linocut. His approach has shifted from representation to abstraction, but he strongly believes that all
art must relate to something outside itself.
The exhibition will show two types of work: Indian Ink drawings, and watercolour paintings.
The Indian ink drawings are from the 2022 series ‘Forty-one approaches to a View’. The ‘view’ is of a particular
duneland studied repeatedly from the same spot. The emphasis has been on making quite simple statements
about that particular space. The first studies that Bantock made of this terrain (also in Indian ink) date from 1961.
It was only while making the recent drawings in 2022 that he realised that other artists, in their later years,
had adopted a similar approach; for example Hokusai, with his ‘Thirty Six Views of Mount Fuji’.
The watercolours were made between 2020 and 2024. These are derived from the same landscape as the
ink drawings, but with a particular emphasis on pictorial space (through flatness) and pictorial light
(through colour), but handled abstractly without reference to specific locales. To some extent the watercolours
are a new departure for Bantock. His only previous experience with the medium was very occasional figurative
work (again, of duneland). He describes watercolour as ‘the most challenging medium of all.’
The two bodies of work are united by a perennial search for clarity of execution and expression, and pictorial economy
free of didacticism, leaving room for spontaneity.
Cuillin Bantock has enjoyed a rich and varied career as artist, scientist, educator and writer. He is an Oxford-trained
zoologist who worked as a professional biologist for 20 years, and later studied at Camberwell College of Art. He has
written and lectured extensively on a wide range of subjects, including science, wildlife conservation, art and artists.
His work has been exhibited widely over many years, and is held in a large number of private and corporate collections.
Highgate Gallery is delighted to be hosting this exhibition, which Bantock has decided – as he approaches
his ninetieth birthday – shall be his last with us.

Gallery open: Wed – Fri: 13.00 – 17.00, Sat: 11.00 – 16.00, Sun: 11.00 -17.00

Christine Watson: Journeys Through Colour

Pastels, Prints and Paintings

Christine Watson’s paintings, pastels and prints explore the essential qualities of cities, towns and villages

around the Mediterranean, places where bright daylight intensifies the richness of colours and the darkness

of shadows.

Christine’s work examines the passageways and stairways of towns and villages in Greece and the traditional

settlements of Morocco. Walls and roofs, windows and doors, streets and alleyways – the fabric of

habitation – are revealed as they are, aged by wear and weather. Her aim is to depict the relationship

between  spaces and surfaces without sentiment or nostalgia.

“I employ different media to reflect on the abstract qualities of these places, their light and shade, their

textures and colours. Each piece of work represents part of my journey through a town or village, inspired

by restless curiosity to seek out what is around the corner or up the stairs – maybe the perfect image for a   painting, pastel or print or even a pot of gold!”, she says.

Pastels and paintings highlight the colours characteristic of each location, using palettes that have endured

through the centuries. Pink and brown madder are the dominant colours of Marrakesh, reflecting the

surrounding mountains; yellow ochre and raw sienna are the principal hues of Fez, while Chefchaouen is

celebrated for its vibrant blues. And although Greek settlements are associated with blue-painted timber

work and whitewashed walls, closer scrutiny reveals much more richness. In Christine’s mezzotints, by

contrast, tone takes over from colour and serves to explore light and shade, textures and surfaces.

Christine Watson studied fine art at Winchester, The Slade and the British School at Rome, since when she

has exhibited widely. She is an elected member of the Pastel Society and an associate member of both  the

Society of Women Artists and the Society of Graphic Fine Art.

Christine Watson: Journeys Through Colour

Pastels, Prints and Paintings

Christine Watson’s paintings, pastels and prints explore the essential qualities of cities, towns and villages

around the Mediterranean, places where bright daylight intensifies the richness of colours and the darkness

of shadows.

Christine’s work examines the passageways and stairways of towns and villages in Greece and the traditional

settlements of Morocco. Walls and roofs, windows and doors, streets and alleyways – the fabric of

habitation – are revealed as they are, aged by wear and weather. Her aim is to depict the relationship

between  spaces and surfaces without sentiment or nostalgia.

“I employ different media to reflect on the abstract qualities of these places, their light and shade, their

textures and colours. Each piece of work represents part of my journey through a town or village, inspired

by restless curiosity to seek out what is around the corner or up the stairs – maybe the perfect image for a   painting, pastel or print or even a pot of gold!”, she says.

Pastels and paintings highlight the colours characteristic of each location, using palettes that have endured

through the centuries. Pink and brown madder are the dominant colours of Marrakesh, reflecting the

surrounding mountains; yellow ochre and raw sienna are the principal hues of Fez, while Chefchaouen is

celebrated for its vibrant blues. And although Greek settlements are associated with blue-painted timber

work and whitewashed walls, closer scrutiny reveals much more richness. In Christine’s mezzotints, by

contrast, tone takes over from colour and serves to explore light and shade, textures and surfaces.

Christine Watson studied fine art at Winchester, The Slade and the British School at Rome, since when she

has exhibited widely. She is an elected member of the Pastel Society and an associate member of both  the

Society of Women Artists and the Society of Graphic Fine Art.
