Art at Anthropologie

Anthropologie has a new exhibition at its Edinburgh store with work by impressionistic Scottish artist, Craig Bell. Striving to capture colour, light and atmosphere in his work and also take inspiration from his travels, particularly in Italy, Craig loves to paint impressionistic views of Edinburgh. He particularly loves painting Stockbridge and The New Town where he is based, as well as classic Scottish Landscapes and Seascapes.

Running alongside his exhibition, Craig will be hosting a series of workshops and live demo days during Edinburgh Fringe – this will include an introduction to acrylic painting, a Fringe inspired painting workshop, and a live painting demo day in store. Click HERE for more details.
