As he draws inspiration from nature, Mr McDonald tends to concentrate on landscapes but on this occasion he has expanded his remit Mr McDonald told the News and Chronicle this week: “There is a real mix of paintings in this particular exhibition – pictures of trains, pictures of children, pictures of trains plus seascapes.’’

A catalogue has also been drawn up to allow local art lovers to make their selection from the impressive line-up.

Mr McDonald has stressed that a percentage of proceeds from his exhibition will be donated to the Marie Curie Cancer Care charity.

The exhibition is scheduled to run until Saturday, September 24.
