Duncan MacMillan Review in Scotsman
“Paton’s paintings are really rather beautiful. Against a white ground, small pools of transparent paint are set off by lines and stripes and dots of brighter, more opaque colour. Fragments of mountains drift in to suggest the fragility of landscape and from one mountain top a word balloon cries “Help!”
