Artwork description:

A fine art limited edition giclée print of the beautiful coastline on the Isle of Bute in the Scottish Highlands. The tiny island in the distance is Inchmarnock Island, an island with a history that reaches back thousands of years. Standing here, with the fading light, the island seems small and insignificant yet it was enormously important back in the middle ages. Home to early monks, the scene of rampaging Vikings and at the far end is a small grave, the resting place for the Queen of the Inch. This ancient queen from the bronze age was buried with a magnificent jet necklace that speaks of important trading routes that made this island so important thousands of years ago.

Long exposure image made early in the morning to catch the best of the light and colour.

Printed at 72 x 36 inches including 2 inches of white border with the title, signature and print number under the image.

This listing is for the paper print but the image is also available as a canvas if you prefer, just contact me for more information.

About My Work
I believe in giving my clients beautiful artwork on luxury papers that hold their colours for a lifetime! For these special prints of my work I use dreamy, light textured Canson Aquarelle Paper and the highest quality inks. I do all my own printing, having spent years learning this skill I prefer to maintain control of the colour representation at all stages to ensure you get a truly handmade image.

About My Materials
People often say that my images look like paintings because of the richness of the colours, the depth of the black and the texture of the materials I use. Canson are one of the oldest paper manufacturers in the world, they have been making paper for over 450 years in France. Founded in 1557 and printers to Louis XVI, their paper was used by Voltaire and Napoleon and the Montgolfier brothers used Canson paper to make the first hot air balloon. Canson paper was used by Picasso, Ingres, Chagal, Miro and many other artists. They have been making paper and canvas for photography since this art began over 150 years ago. Canson are Eco Friendly - they purchase paper pulp only from forests managed in a sustainable way which also makes them pretty special.

Other Sizes
This print is available in other sizes on canvas or paper. I am happy to take custom orders, just drop me a line.
