Audrey is a flexible and versatile artist, painting landscapes flowers and portraits, working mainly in oils and water colour but enjoying pastels and oil pastels too, especially when the ephemeral play of colour and light demands that a subject is tackled quickly.

Her millennium gift to the village - a commemorative scene of a Tayvallich Weekend which includes many well known local figures - now hangs in the village hall, where each week for eight months of the year she freely gives her time to helping and encouraging members of the village art class to develop their own skills and lines which she does with immense skill and patience.

John paints the surrounding Argyll mainland and island landscape, but is equally at home painting in France and Holland.

His style is partly Expressionist, where he uses some distortion to express the feeling of wind on buildings, but also with a touch of Scottish Colourist in his use of light and colour.

He nearly always uses the images of crofts in his landscapes, although not exclusively, and has a "Romantic" view of them, drawing on his island roots.

In 1985 John began signings with "JOLOMO". John says "I try to paint beautiful paintings as I also hold closely to Monet's statement that 'beauty has a healing power.'

Libby has worked as a full time artist since 1996. As a portrait painter, most recent commissions include a large work in oils of the McPherson family of Tarbert, the Meikle children of Lochgilphead, the Cameron twins, and Laura and Christopher Murdanaigum of Tayvallich and a textural drawing of the Asknes boys, Keills, Tayvallich. Libby will travel to undertake commissions in your own home,

Other works in oils include studies of subjects from the natural world such as brambles, gorse, wild fungi or cherries and other fruits.

The mixed media works on paper are quite experimental, generally on a theme of movement. They often include mythical seals, figures and birds. These very original and poetic works have found success in major competitive exhibitions.

Originally from the east coast Caroline is inspired by the dramatic colours of the rugged landscape and seascape of the west.  Her impressionistic style conveys to the viewer the calmness of an island bay, the drama of a crashing wave on a deserted west coast beach or the splendour of a west coast sunset.  Caroline also enjoys painting still life (particularly bold flowers) and life drawing.

Caroline's work has also been turned into greeting cards which are sold locally.  Her paintings are on display in the village Coffee Shop and local Inn.
