Hamish Herd

Born in South Africa and now based in the United Kingdom, Hamish has been passionate about art since his earliest memories and has always been actively involved in the creative process.

After studying for a Bachelor of Arts degree with Art History as his major, Hamish started his career teaching art at secondary school level. It wasn’t long before he became a full time professional artist and 25 years later he remains passionate about producing excellence in every piece of work that he creates.

Hamish works in both sculpture and painting disciplines and draws upon his faith for inspiration in every piece of art. Often looking to the atmospheric qualities in nature, his seascapes are often stormy or hint at impending turbulence or the aftermath. It is the changes of light that inspire many artists including Hamish and he certainly captures this with a sense of drama.
