About The Artwork
An oversized photography print in neutral tones from a quiet place, a deserted beach on the far side of the Isle of Lewis. If you travel to the wild north of Scotland on the west coast, then take the ferry to the Isle of Harris and Lewis, then continue north, you gradually lose all sense of the modern world. Your view of the world changes to peaceful scenes of a rough, untouched landscape surrounded by water. Your heart lifts the farther you go until you each the far side of the Isle of Lewis. Here, the small beaches are surrounded by ragged cliffs that look out at the Atlantic Ocean with nothing to see for thousands of miles. Only a very few people live in small cottages dotting the hills in this lost paradise. When the mist rolls in, even the waves soften and are quiet. The colours of landscape and sea dissolve into one another like frosted glass and soft silver sand is caressed by teal water as clear as glass as daw drifts down in muted tones only hinting at pink. Printed on beautifully smooth satin fine art paper that is guaranteed not to fade for over a hundred years. Also available as a canvas print on request. Print size 60 x 60 inches including a narrow white border for handling. 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 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. This listing is for the paper version of the print, this would be ideal for dry mounting or float framing. It is an great size for a room with a high ceiling yet it does not over power as it is in soft neutral tones.

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.
