The Jetty Gallery
Morag Mellor
Originally from the Isle of Lismore, Morag, (known locally as Mogs) now helps to run the family farm and a Bed & Breakfast just south of Oban.
Whenever she gets a chance she enjoys painting.
She studied History of Art at Edinburgh University, graduating in 1980.
A mainly self taught artist she is strongly influenced by the Scottish Colourists and Impressionists. She enjoys attempting to capture the wonderful colours and light experienced throughout Argyll and the West Coast.
Around twenty years ago she switched from using watercolour as her chosen medium to oils. More recently she’s been experimenting with acrylics.
