Red Jacket by John Arnold, c. 1900's

Oil on academy board view of Scottish seaside dunes and the water beyond. Born in Scotland in 1949, John Bathgate grew up in the rolling Scottish Border country. His art education followed an apprenticeship style training with the artist and teacher Robert Fraser. By 1979 he had joined the “Lothian Group” of artists and had begun to exhibit in and around Edinburgh, along with establishing his first studio. He now lives in the north west of Skye, which looks out on Loch Bracadale, with views south to Rum and Canna, the Cuillins and west to MacLeods Tables. The quality of light here and the constantly changing weather provide all the inspiration for many of the paintings produced. Scotland, circa 1980. Condition: Fine original condition.

Link detailed this process: “The medium is indeed "acrylic" but not what most people mean by acrylic - which is waterborne acrylic. Instead this is acrylic resin dissolved in turps, with a dash of alkyd resin thrown in to stabilize it so the next layers of paint do not re-dissolve it. Thus it does not muddle up like repeated layers of watercolor can. This stuff does not yellow either, like oil, and a glass of it looks like a glass of water, it is that clear, thus preserving the intensity of the pigment. Also, because it is clear when wet, there is no "pastel effect" like you get with waterborne acrylic, where you must let a glaze dry before you see what you have. It is WYSIWYG to the core." Link (1942 - 2021) was born in Oklahoma City, began his career in Illinois, headed the art dept at Virginia Tech...
