Artwork description:

The tiny islands of Raasay and Rona, only a few miles long, off the coast of the Isle of Skye. The skies in the far north west of Scotland are often filled with dramatic clouds tumbling over the teal water and leaving us to dream of the islands beyond. I often take create these images on the cliffs near my studio on Skye.

This calming image of the Atlantic Ocean with a moody sky, is a long exposure, a technique that creates soft movement in the clouds. The fine art giclée print is the perfect size for hanging above a sofa in the living room or over a bed, creating a talking point and bringing colour to the room. The teal blue and bright white colours are typical of the Scottish coastal region and are both vibrant and colourful.


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 80 x 45 inches. This 16 x 9 ratio is perfect for over a sofa or above a bed. 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.
