Title: The Promise Every day is washed in silver, sometimes dark as pewter and sometimes light and full of promise. Made on the clifftops of the Isle of Skye, a view to the tiny island of Rona and north to the Atlantic Ocean. Here the wind on a soft Summer's morning blows so softly over the waves that they ripple like iridescent scales on a silver fish. The teal colours in the sky are reflected in the water and there is a sensation of light and air in the image. Every so often Nature creates a thing of beauty that needs no enhancement. This image has had only minimal changes and is truly representative of the view from Skye. About My Work I am luxury papers 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. About My Materials People often say that my images look like paintings because of the richness of the colours, the depth of the black and the texture of the materials I use. Other Sizes I am happy to take custom orders, just drop me a line. Framing Options I work with professional framers in the UK and the US. If you would like advice on framing please let me know. A Note on Canvases Canvases are unframed and unmounted, they need to be stretched or framed once you get them. They are matte varnished and come with 1.5 inch (4cm) with white or dark coloured sides depending on the image. If you prefer gallery wrap please get in touch. Once ready, they are carefully wrapped in acid free tissue then shipped in a sturdy art tube to ensure safe delivery. All taxes and duties to be paid by the receiver. OTHER SIZES and DIMENSIONS I also have a small edition printed on luxury ChromaLuxe Aluminium, please see other listing for details or get in touch with me.

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.
