Donald McIntyre was a British painter best known for his lush depictions of landscapes in Scotland and Wales.

Working en plein-air, he vividly captured fleeting light conditions with boldly colourful and simplified compositions—often abbreviating architecture or figures into a few simple blocks of colour in a manner that recalls the later work of the Bay Area Figurative painter David Park.

Born in 1923 in Leeds, United Kingdom, McIntyre studied as a dentist a the Glasgow Dental Hospital while taking night classes in art at the Glasgow School of Art. Today, the artist’s works are held in the collections of the Llyfrgell Geneglaethol Cymru National Library of Wales, the American Embassy in London, the Newport Art Gallery, and the Williamson Art Gallery, among others.

McIntyre died on January 13, 2009 in Bangor, Wales.
