Artwork description:

The One Tree, Isle of Skye

This island is full of stories of fairy folk and magic and this little hawthorn tree may stands on the threshold to the fairy world. In the ballad of Thomas the Rhymer, the Scots poet is taken away by the Queen of Elfland as he sits beneath an ancient thorn known as the Eildon tree. In another old rhyme, the Ballad of Sir Cawline, a lady dares the hero to go to Eldridge Hill where a hawthorn grows, to await there the faery king.

I photograph and print every image, I do not outsource any part of my workflow. Each print has been painstakingly crafted to ensure the true colours, resolution and texture are exactly as they should be and ensure you get a truly handmade item that will last a lifetime.

For these special small editions of my work I use Canson Aquarelle Paper which has a lovely watercolour paper texture. Using this paper and combining it with the fabulous non-fade Ultrachrome inkset of 9 colours, I can produce a print of exceptional quality which will last a lifetime without fading.
Canson are one of the oldest paper manufacturers in the world, they have been making paper and canvas for over 450 years in France. Founded in 1557 and printers to Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette, Canson has the choice of many famous artists such as Picasso, Ingres, Chagal and Miro to name but a few.
