McIntosh's paintings reflect his enduring love of the Scottish Isles. Archie says: 'Since childhood, I have lived in close proximity to sea, loch, river and mountain. As a painter I have the desire to investigate the form, colour, texture and mood of each, and respond through drawing and painting. I feel it is part of my cultural heritage to interpret and translate the many influences in my life and soul. Within the 'larger vision' there exists many smaller component parts, which can combine to wear the whole. For example, a small harbour can present graphic images of fishermen ropes, reels, boxes, boats, birds - each with the potential for interpretation changing light, changing mood, changing seasons, changing vision.'
