TAKE THE LONG WAY HOME

oil paintings by Alison McIntosh

 

In Take the Long Way Home, Alison invites viewers to embrace the art of slowing down. In a world that often prioritises speed and efficiency, her work encourages us to meander, wander, and muse—allowing time to truly see and discover the richness in our surroundings.

Her oil paintings are vibrant, multi-layered explorations that reflect the beauty of discovery, blending intuitive mark-making with the considered precision of printmaking and stencilling techniques.  Each work suggests hidden narratives waiting to be found, inviting contemplation and a deeper connection to the environment.

Through this collection, Alison hopes to inspire the finding of joy in the journey itself.
