Immerse your surroundings with a vibrant interpretation of the Three Sisters slopes in Glencoe, where the natural allure of the Scottish landscape meets the avant-garde essence of Cubism. This exquisite print brings to life the mesmerising beauty of bell heather, captured through an array of geometric shapes and bold colours that challenge the boundaries of perception and artistic expression. The composition bursts with a palette of oranges, yellows, and pinks, reminiscent of a sunset's warmth bathing the undulating highlands. The foreground is dominated by rich tones of magenta and crimson, depicting clusters of bell heather that enliven the scene with their radiant hues. White and soft grey geometric forms juxtapose this, symbolising the rugged and enduring stones that pepper the landscape. Innovatively fragmented, the scenery unfolds in a rhythmic pattern of colour blocks and angular lines, leading the eye effortlessly across the rolling hills and tranquil streams that characterise the Glencoe valley. The middle distance is a harmony of diminishing warmth, transitioning into cool blues and purples that represent the distant mountains, adding depth and a sense of serene remoteness to the piece. This print captures the essence of the Scottish wilds while reimagining it through a Cubist lens, offering a statement piece that complements both contemporary and traditional spaces. It is an invitation to explore the dynamism of nature and art intertwined, a perfect tribute to the splendour of Glencoe and the innovative spirit of Cubism.

Pierre Adolphe Valette (1876 – 1942) was a French Impressionist painter. His most acclaimed paintings are urban landscapes of Manchester, now in the collection of Manchester Art Gallery. Today, he is chiefly remembered as the painter L. S. Lowry’s tutor. Born in St Etienne in 1876, he trained at the Ecole Municipale de Beaux-Arts et des Arts Decoratifs in Bordeaux. He arrived in England for unknown reasons in 1904 and studied at the Birbeck Institute, now part of the University of London. In 1905 he travelled to the North West of England where he designed greetings cards and calendars for a Manchester printing company. He attended evening classes at Manchester Municipal School of Art and in 1907 he was invited to join the staff as a teacher. His French teaching style, painting by demonstration, was new to the United Kingdom. Lowry expressed great admiration for Valette, who taught him new techniques and showed him the potential of the urban landscape as a subject. He called him "a real teacher … a dedicated teacher". Lowry added: "I cannot over-estimate the effect on me of the coming into this drab city of Adolphe Valette, full of French impressionists, aware of everything that was going on in Paris." In 1920 Valette resigned from the Institute owing to ill health. He stayed in Lancashire for eight more years, teaching privately and painting in Manchester and Bolton. In 1928 he returned to Paris, and subsequently moved to Blacé en Beaujolais where he died in 1942. Valette's paintings are Impressionist, a style that suited the damp fogginess of Manchester. Manchester Art Gallery has a room devoted to him, where the viewer may compare some of his paintings with some of Lowry's, and judge to what extent Lowry's own style was influenced by him and by French Impressionism generally.

Januz Miralles is an illustrator based in Laguna, Philippines. His eerie, ethereal images combine traditional painting techniques with digital photo manipulation, creating a surreal landscape where human figures are woven into a shifting fog of textures and brush strokes. Although little is known of the artist or his artistic approach, Miralles’ work is nonetheless viscerally haunting and mystical. Januz is currently 24 years old, living in Manila, working in a production.
I’ve been doubly spoiled over the past month by inspiring encounters with exceptional plantsmen. First up, I reconnected with über designer, Piet Oudolf in the form of a two-hour transatlantic Skype call to Hummelo, which turned into a one-on-one masterclass in planting design. This was followed by a three-day visit from American plantsman, writer, and prairie whisperer Roy Diblik, who came up from Northwind Perennial Farm to speak to the Canadian chapter of the Garden Writers Association at our annual meeting here in Toronto. I’ve learned to never quarrel with serendipity.
