Meadows to Mountains
Here’s some effortlessly enjoyable art that’s gentle on the senses. Scottish textural painter Ronnie Ford is returning to Singapore after five years to showcase his new body of work: Shades of Grey. The exhibition, titled Meadows to Mountains, will feature said body of work of iconic paintings of vast landscapes, seen through his eyes. What makes this showcase exceptional is Ford's debut of grayscale pieces, alongside his traditional colourful series.

His canvases are rich with thick impasto layers, achieving a vividly lifelike quality and imbuing a sense of depth and dimension into the flat surface. Inspired greatly by Chinese masters, Ford embraces the philosophy that while many can reproduce a landscape, only a genuine master can truly capture its essence.
