Artist DHellums

I spent many years living in Scotland as a young man hiking in the Pentland Hills, just outside of Edinburgh. This is where I grew to love the outdoors and the flora and fauna that surrounded me there. Scotland is beautiful, but a harsh contrast to the abundant, warm sunlight of my childhood home in Texas which I greatly missed. I am sure that is why to this day, I paint with such intense light and bright colors.
