The paintings of Shane McCoubrey capture the colour,drama and atmosphere which is ever present in nature
 
A rare talent for adding the softness of the sky with the harsh realities of stormy seas creates a contrast in each painting.A storm coming in from the west while the sun is still shining in the sky...It is this element of diversity that makes the owner of each painting never tire of the scenes
 
McCoubrey is just beginning to be recognised as an up and coming talent in the contemporary landscape art world whilst the size and dynamic colour make them memorable long after you have left the gallery.
 
Combining the new style landscape  scenes on huge canvases has opened up a nice market that few other landscape artists want to capture since most landscape artists work relatively small.Using modern materials such as acrylics,inks,oil pastels,car sprays and hot water for bleaching effects-this creates amazing scenes you can lose yourself into.
 
Most canvases are from 40 square inches up and top about 80 inches for the largest....This is normally the domain of the american abstract artists.This could be why American and Australian buyers now represent a large part of his customer base
