Orrock is an Impressionism artist. 3 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Orrock was the quiet watercolour artist who followed the light like a lighthouse keeper, chasing Scottish castles and coves whenever the weather cleared. Ask anyone in Oban who they think of when you say “Dunnottar at dusk,” and they’ll point to his 1898 sheet where the ruin and the sea seem to trade places. Look it up and you’ll see why he belongs here—one sheet of paper, one perfect storm of colour you can frame on your wall tomorrow.
