#245 – Long Journey Home

The Forth Bridge is a celebrated Scottish landmark, this painting preserves this timeless landmark. This painting having been commissioned by an adoring wife for her Scottish husband. He did his degree in electrical engineering and travelled by train on the Forth Rail Bridge.

The Forth Bridge, a symbol of Scotland and an emblematic achievement in railway engineering history, stands proudly even to this day. When constructed over 130 years ago it marked the first use of steel as Britain’s foremost building material while also opening up continuous East Coast rail routes from London to Aberdeen. Earning its place within the pantheon of cantilever trussed bridges worldwide for both passengers and freight alike; today it remains largely unchanged since opened – authentic form and design coupled with only minimal changes made to materials and substance meaning that function continues as intended by those who originally built her.

Jeff Dillon the Canadian Artist, inspired by the bold colours and brush strokes of Post-Impressionist Artists. His unique style focuses on capturing light, not through the detail of realism, but with gesture, illusion, shape and colour. He offers a personal and distinctive style to the world through his bold use of colours and lines, often symbolic images or subject matter. Objects in the paintings retain their realistic appearance yet have a vibrancy and fluidity about them, unique to his work. Jeff Dillon’s new expression of Post-Impressionism is both beloved and revered in the Canadian and Global Contemporary Art World.
