FINE ARTIST and creator of FINE ART LIVE
FINE ART LIVE
'Fine Art Live' is an innovative and engaging addition to corporate and fundraising events, with a proven track record of generating income for charities.
At each event I create a new and unique piece of art (often a large painting on canvas), live and in front of an audience of guests or clients. I try to recreate the feel of the studio, with working drawings, artist's materials and literature, whilst talking to the attendees with the enthusiasm and energy that I bring to these occasions. As an experienced public speaker, I am always happy to give a more formal talk, answer questions and initiate discussions.
People love to see a painting being created, from the initial strokes to the final flourish, and, once completed, my work is then auctioned at the event to raise funds for the organiser's chosen charity. To date, the amount raised by the auctions has considerably exceeded the cost of my fee.

“The atmosphere on the night was enhanced by Alasdair's presence, good humour and obvious talent. The unveiling of his painting "Horseman" not only created wow factor but added meaningfully to the £400,000 raised by the Event. Fantastic."

TESTIMONIALS
"Alasdair took part in our Ocean Race event along with Olympian Shirley Robertson OBE. It was amazing to see the transformation from blank canvas to finished article. Clients loved the interaction with the artist and were really caught up in the moment – thanks to Alasdair's animated approach and sheer enthusiasm.
He has since been our creative partner in a number of motorsport events, resulting in very positive feedback from our clients. It's a great spectacle and an absolute must for any client event.”
Duncan Cunningham, The Belmont Group - Volvo Ocean Race Event
“Not only did Alasdair produce a fantastic piece of artwork for us, we invited him to speak to the guests at our conference and it was an amazing experience to see the artist at work first hand.”
Newell McGuiness - S.E.L.E.C.T. Conference
"Your working throughout the evening was the highlight of the event for many of our guests, who have never seen art being created in such a way before. Being able to tell our guests that you would be there made the event stand out when we were inviting them, and I'm sure added to its success.”
Terry Ryall, Chief Executive - vInspired
“Alasdair's easy and relaxed attitude towards art made this event really enjoyable. He was very engaging and willing to share his techniques and experiences. Everyone went away happy having watched, listened to and experienced a great artist at work!”
Karen McSkimming, Brough and Stainmore Art Group - Fine Art Workshop
“We were delighted with the original painting now hanging in our HQ Boardroom, the edition of the special prints and with the artist's entertaining and illuminating talk at the reception in Edinburgh City Chambers.”
