Alan Burden - Artist, Painter, Mijas, Costa del Sol, Spain My paintings, usually employing acrylic or watercolour paints with a subtle underlay of relief and more loosely applied texture, cover several areas of subject matter. My prime interest, however, is in the forms derived from mountainous landscapes. In consequence, although a native of southern England, my earlier works were taken from the Highlands of Scotland and the wilder parts of north east England. Since taking up residence in Mijas, Andalucía, my works have all been centered on the wonders of Spanish landscape.My paintings, usually employing acrylic or watercolour paints with a subtle underlay of relief and more loosely applied texture, cover several areas of subject matter.
