Artwork description:

A rustic teal, green and brown impressionist image of the wild waters raging in the wind around Birsay on Orkney.

Birsay, on Orkney Mainland, is one of those wild, untamed places that leaves a lasting mark on your soul. Standing at the northern edge of the island, with towering rock formations facing the relentless Atlantic waves, I couldn’t help but be captivated by its raw beauty. This piece was born from that moment—an impressionist-style photograph that blends earthy browns with deep teals, reflecting the meeting of land, sea, and sky.

For me, this artwork captures the grounding feeling of being in such a powerful place—the wind in your hair, the sound of the waves rushing to shore, and the vastness of it all. It’s my tribute to the untamed spirit of Scotland, and I’m thrilled to share it with others who appreciate the beauty of nature’s raw emotions.

This piece is printed on premium Canson Aquarelle paper, renowned for its exceptional quality. The paper's delicate watercolor texture and bright white surface enhance the vibrancy and detail of the artwork, resulting in a truly stunning print. The image is produced at a size of 48 x 32 inches, accompanied by a 2-inch white border. The border will feature the signature, edition number, and title, elegantly positioned just below the image.
