Unveiling Duncan McCormick's Optimistic Creations

A Vision of Positivity on Canvas:
Step into the world of Duncan McCormick's artistry, where deliberate positivity takes form through his brushstrokes. With each stroke, he breathes life into images that awaken memories of joyful daydreams. From childhood escapades along Salcombe Bay's Devon coast, reminiscent of California and the Mediterranean, to reimagining snow-blanketed Scottish mountain landscapes as alpine marvels, and turning forgotten streets and deserted gardens into sun-soaked sanctuaries.

Expressive Process and Luminous Palette:
McCormick's artistic process commences with gentle layers of pigments, swiftly overlaying them with acrylic paint to capture the spontaneity of his work. His primary focus lies in capturing the vibrancy of colors on canvas. The result is a collection infused with vibrant and luminous tones that amplify the dreamlike quality of each masterpiece.

Art as a Response to Change:
These artworks offer a purposeful response to the era of Covid-19 and its resulting lockdown measures. After celebrating his wedding and welcoming twins, McCormick exchanged the suburbs of London for the tranquil landscapes of North Shropshire. The isolation of the pandemic prompted a shift from intricate, symbol-laden narratives to simpler, intentionally escapist scenes in acrylic paint.
