'VIRTUALLY SCOTLAND' - an iPhone exhibition of Scottish landscapes

The 1st of February saw the launch of my new exhibition of 26 landscapes from my favourite travels around Scotland.  This is the first exhibition of it's kind. It is a virtual exhibition, it's venue being..on an Apple iPhone, as an application that is now available to download freely to Apple iPhone users.  (Will also work on some other phones).     I  like the idea of art sharing and came up with the idea of creating an exhibition which can be seen worldwide by anyone who can access the application.  This is an experimental project

and therefore I have no idea of it's outcome. I hope it will allow my work and this exhibition of Scottish landscapes to be enjoyed to a wide audience.  I encourage any feedback  via my guestbook or if you are an iphone owner you can rate the application on itunes store.

To access this free app. go onto Apple itunes > applications > search > moy mackay.

This exhibition can also be viewed on the gallery page of this website.

Commissioned work

Generally when I create pieces of work they the are from sketches or photos that I have taken. This was a commission for which the customer supplied me with various photos of her house to work from.
