  • Guy Aitchison


    At the center of what I do is the wish to convey a feeling — awe, beauty, longing, something warm and luminous. Shaped by nature, the old masters, and four decades in the tattoo world, my paintings range from observational still life and landscape to fantastical inner worlds where nature's truths meet wilder flights of fancy.

  • Michele Aitchison


    My paintings explore the space between abstract and representational. I'm drawn to the interplay of natural elements and geometric form, where the work evolves organically and intuitively. I think of painting as an active meditation: a dialogue between myself and the surface.

  • Kaia Aitchison


    I have been painting for as long as I can remember. Growing up in a creative household, art has always felt natural. I observe the world closely — local flora and fauna, light and shadow — and weave in the surreality of a dream.
