Jolomo - JOHN LOWRIE MORRISON The Scottish Croftscape

About

Jolomo - John Lowrie Morrison 10th Annual London Exhibition featuring 87 paintings of the Scottish crofts and landscape in his vivid style. My enduring fascination with the Scottish croft goes back a long way. My Family came from a ‘Blackhouse Croft' on the Isle of Harris... The croft still stands although modernised... so my roots are in a croft. This has led me to paint crofts all my life... my first croft drawings and paintings being in the 1950's... I am obsessed with the croft gable end... even when a croft is disused as with crofts cleared during the Highland Clearances... The croft may fall down in ruin... but the gable end remains like an epitaph!
