Alex Salmond

Exhibition: Energy: North Sea Portraits

I painted Scotland’s former first minister Alex Salmond in London and Edinburgh, before his SNP party swept to power in 2007,  as part of my exhibition “Energy: North Sea Portraits”.   He was voted for because of his previous life as an oil economist with the Royal Bank of Scotland.
