Robin Ade
Artist & Author
Robin Ade's fish art is renowned both nationally and internationally for its technical accuracy and compositional quality.
His technically accurate water colour paintings of various species of fish - in particular trout and salmon - are beautiful and vivid, capturing the colours and tones of a fish in water before the air starts to dull the colours.
Trout and salmon fishing is Robin's passion, and this is visible in his fish art. Not only are his paintings accurate, they are also eye catching and full of life - nothing dry or formulaic. With an artists eye and creative instinct for design and colour, Robin Ade creates compelling, precise compositions.
With two books published - 'Fisher in the Hills; a Season in Galloway' and 'The Trout and Salmon Handbook; a Guide to the Wild Fish' - and another on the way, Robin Ade is an expert on nature, wildlife and the natural world. His first book, 'Fisher in the Hills', is now a collector's item and there are only a few very sought after copies left in circulation. Robin hopes to have the book reprinted in the near future.
