Artwork description:

The Red Cuillins on the Isle of Skye are incredibly romantic, they rise in peaks in the middle of the island in soft reddish tones. The colours in this image remind me of Vermeers' paintings of cloth and rich velvets. I used a special set of techniques to capture this image and then worked to bring out the best of the fabulous colours of the Scottish landscape. Printing this on canvas adds to the texture, a personal favourite!

My work is all about the emotional connection we have to a place and the moment in our memory when we felt such intense pleasure looking at a landscape. I am driven to capture the essence of a place with my camera, working mainly with the colours and shapes in the landscape. I travel to remote islands, to places steeped in history, unspoilt beaches and wild rocky coastlines where I love to work in quiet solitude.

About My Work
I am passionate about using luxury papers/canvases that hold their colours for a lifetime! For these special large prints of my work I use beautiful museum quality Canvas 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.

A Note on Canvases
Printed on beautifully fine art CANVAS that is guaranteed not to fade for over a hundred years. Print size 74 x 56 inches. The canvas will have an extra 2 inches white border for the framer to use for the sides of your frame.

FRAMING
My suggestion would be to have this canvas stretched over a simple wooden frame then float framed with a simple light coloured wood frame for strength. It is an great size for over the sofa or above the bed or in a room with a high ceiling.

Available in other sizes and on paper on request.
