Carmen Ambrozevich


Carmen's paintings are inspired by her love of
the landscape, geology and archaeology of
East Lothian. She expresses this through
her use of bold vibrant colours and often
includes elements of the landscape, the
precipitous island of Bass Rock being one of
her favourites.

We are delighted to be showing some of her
most recent work at the gallery.

During the festival, Carmen will also be
exhibiting work at the 'Shoestring Cafe'
adjacent to Dunbar Railway Station.
