Arie Vardi

Arie Vardi was born in Chile, graduated in graphic design and printing in Jerusalem and has lived in Scotland since 1991. Arie is a passionate painter, inspired by a deep connection to the Scottish Highlands. A land of great visual force with rugged coastlands, mountains and at times a few seasons in one day. Some of his favourite subject matters are in the West Coast, Argyll, Caithness, Sutherland and the Islands. The elemental form of the land, especially the connective points of sea and shore or hill and sky, is of particular interest.

I paint because I Iove the freedom of expression, the experimentation with colour and playing with texture in acrylics, mixed media and oils.
