Artwork description:

Title: Moody Skies at Scarista

On rainy days in Winter you would imagine there is not much to see at the beach....you would be wrong. On the Island of Harris, deep navy blue and mauve tones contrast beautifully against the silver sand of the beach. Soft tawny grasses and bracken line the edges of the sand and the hills in the distance recede into smudges. All you need is a little light to hit the beach and hey presto, the magic happens. Like a watercolour painting, the colours run and mix and create a soft, romantic image that is both calming and interesting.

Harris is a small island with few inhabitants. In Winter you have the beach to yourself apart from the birds. It is one of the most beautiful and unspoilt places in the world.

I Love Printing!
Your beautiful artwork will be Giclée printed here in my studio on Skye on fabulous Canson Canvas. This heavy canvas has the subtle texture and, with the UV resistant non fade inks I use, it holds colour for a lifetime. Canson-Arches have been making paper and canvas for over 450 years and supplied artists like Picasso, Ingres, Miro and Warhol to name but a few. The 10 inks I use for my printing are state-of-the-art non fade Epson Ultrachrome K3 with Vivid Magenta, these give each artwork incredible depth and tone.

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

A Note on Canvases
Canvases are shipped in a sturdy art tube for safety and will arrive unframed. Your framer will help you to choose to have the canvas stretched over wooden bars and hang it without a frame or have it float mounted where a narrow frame is added around the stretched canvas. By default, I print the image with an additional 2 inches of white canvas border for the sides of your framed canvas. You can request this border to be a colour, black or white for example or a colour from the image.

Thanks for looking, if you have any questions just drop me a line.
