Made on the Island of Mainland Orkney off the north coast of Scotland near the Ring of Brodgar, standing stones from over 5000 years ago. The pools of water near the stones are filled with beautiful reeds and wildlife, glimmering water reflecting a September sky. From the sheep on the land, Orcadians weave beautiful fabrics, texture and landscape combine. My work is all about the emotional connection we have to a place and 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 I see when I half close my eyes. I travel to remote islands, to places steeped in history, unspoilt beaches and wild rocky coastlines where I love to work in quiet solitude. I love printing and have long been obsessed with the materials I use. I love to work with fine art canvas and papers that are made for museum quality artworks. All paper and canvas prints have a generous white border around them for the framer to work with. Paper prints are signed, numbered and titled in border under the image. Canvas and metal prints are signed, titled and numbered on the front of the artwork in the bottom corner. You will receive a Certificate of Authenticity with the details and the number of your piece in the edition. I hope, that when hanging on your wall, this lovely piece takes you to a beautiful place in your life when you stood and gazed in wonder at what Nature has created. All my work is available on fine art paper, canvas or Chromaluxe aluminium. Some sizes can be delivered ready to hang on canvas or framed. The Chromaluxe metal prints have a subframe on the back and are ready to hang on the wall. This particular listing is for the unframed canvas which will need to be stretched by a framer once received. If you would like more information on the ready to hang options or other materials I use then please ask the team to contact me. I also do bespoke sizes. Many thanks for looking at my work.

As a professional photographer I travel often to the islands of northern Scotland to make my images in places that provoke a profound emotional reaction. The colours, the textures, the wildness of the places and the history are all intertwined in a fascinating, and often bewildering melting pot of sensation that forces me to make art. After moving many times to get to where I should be, I now live on top of a cliff at the northern end of the Isle of Skye. Skye is a large and very beautiful island in the far north of Scotland; a place of inspiration, myth and legend. The beauty of the landscape draws artists and walkers, photographers and lovers of Nature like a magnet, and I am likewise smitten. Skye has a ruggedness and intense green hills that would make anyone pick up a camera or a paintbrush. My work has moved through variations on a theme of movement and colour. Whether the camera moves or I move or the landscape moves it is all the same. Colours, moving blending and soaking into one another create a sense of playfulness, the feeling you get when the wind is in your hair on a bright sunny day. More and more I wonder if there is any end to how one can capture the colours, the lines and the essence of a place. In my studio today, the bright green Hill of the Red Fox is shrouded in a light mist, the wind is howling and the clouds are moving quickly across the hills. It is a scene that makes my heart sing. I hope my work conveys some of the joy I feel when I see these colours, the harmony and the wind singing through it all. It is at least a quest that, hopefully, will last a lifetime.
