Robert Eggington

Robert Egginton was born in Devon in 1943 and is a landscape painter in watercolours and oils. He paints mainly Scottish scenes in an accurate pictorial manner, with a bright palette. He is the grandson of Wycliffe Egginton RI (1875-1951) and nephew of Frank Egginton (1908-1990), whose oeuvre Robert’s style is very close to.

Robert paints in oils and watercolours and always works en plain air to maximise the atmosphere of the subject. He lives in the Highlands of Scotland and comes to Ireland during the spring and autumn. He has had several none-man exhibitions in Dublin, Belfast, Scotland, Europe and the USA.
