McVeigh is a widely recognised Edinburgh-based artist whose paintings identify strongly with Scotland, its people and Scottish culture. Many of his paintings focus on city life in Scotland, with all its subcultures and traditions. Edinburgh streets, Scottish pipes and drums, harbour scenes and pubs, fisherfolk and folk musicians all come together to convey the character of a busy and bustling merry-go-round city in full swing.
His paintings and prints depict everyday life in Scotland and the Scottish people, but when infused with his own personal perceptions, take on a dreamlike quality, and are abundant with poetic imagery.
