News from Provisional ROI Member Lachlan Goudie

Lachlan writes: " Over the past year I have been involved in a long term project to document the construction of the Royal Navy's new aircraft carriers in Govan and Rosyth, Scotland. It's a fascinating job which affords me privileged access to the shipyards and I have accumulated a vast number of sketches and studies which will eventually be worked up into large paintings.

Over the last twelve months I have exhibited in London, Glasgow and Spain. I also featured in a Times newspaper feature about 'promising' young British artists which appeared just before the Olympics.
