	Biog Trevor was born and educated in Scotland and specialised in drawing and painting at Gray's School of Art. He completed a Masters Degree (Art in Architecture) at University of East London and works from a studio in east London. He also teaches art in London. Over the years, themes and phases frequently re-occur in the work but one constant is the reliance on landscape imagery and a connection to the land - it defines the content. From figurative beginnings and solitary figures in landscapes ~ through a spiritual phase, influenced by many cultures reliance on visual imagery in ritual (Celtic signs and carvings and the vernacular in Indian village art) Gallery 5 to the post-industrial landscape of London.Gallery 2 Today, the urban landscapes are now imbued with an essence of the socio/political - the movement of communities and social changes are seen as metaphor in the decay of the facades and structures of the buildings - ephemeral and vulnerable to change but, stripped back down to basic simplicity and starkness. These urban landscapes are in contrast to the wilderness images taken from solitary highland walks - like many Scottish artists, he is very much influenced by the natural, wild landscape of his country.Gallery 1
