Currently working on a new series of pictures entitled the “The Absinthe Diaries”. Exhibitions are scheduled for Edinburgh and London over the next few months. Details to follow…

This painting has been shipped to Aquitaine in the South West of France. This is a quote from the new owners – “The painting is in our dinning room and she is looking to the vineyards which grow next to the house.  It’s like she is enjoying the fruits of what she sees, a perfect circle. Only “our” vines  produce the grapes for the Jurancon wines .”

Thanks to Keith D from Edinburgh Spotlight for his review of my Champagne Club Paintings.

“Champagne, oysters, pearls, a beautiful woman: who better to capture the opulence – and decadence – suggested by these than Edinburgh-based artist Davy Macdonald…..”

Thanks to John Gibson for the following write up, published in the Edinburgh Evening News on 8th Feb 2010.

See Charlene, the lady in Davy’s pics

“I have had a couple of commissions, here at the Ship and another from the supplier of Comte Audion de Dampiere champagne to the restaurant.”

The current exhibition is first in Davy’s Champagne Club series and Ship owner Murray Georgeson, 30 years in the trade, hopes to accommodate more. .. Some day a Vettriano? Who knows? Maybe worth an investment.
