As the last rays of the sun kiss the day goodbye, our exclusive print captures the essence of Traigh Mhor's quiet majesty. With a palette that masterfully blends fiery oranges with soft purples and pinks, the canvas is alive with the vibrant hues of the sunset.

Oct. 13, 1917, marked the last Marian apparition in Fátima, a day on which thousands of people bore witness to the miracle of the dancing sun.
Happy first day of spring! The last couple of weeks have been spent in the cold, cold (-20 degree Celsius) northern territories of Canada, working night shift in an office with no windows. Meaning that, I have barely seen the sun that whole time. Coming back to Vancouver, I was overjoyed to feel the sun on my face and go for long walks and runs outside. All of this sun has me thinking about spring knitting and searching for patterns that would be perfect to wear in the springtime. Lace, light
Capturing the ethereal transition from day to night, this exquisite print invites viewers to bask in the serene beauty of Ardtun Bay at the cusp of dusk. In the Art Nouveau style, the piece is a symphony of elongated forms and elegant, sinuous lines that harmonise with the natural environment, evoking a sense of tranquillity and romanticism. The composition is bathed in a palette of purples, blues, and ochres, reflecting the last golden rays of the sun as it dips below the horizon, casting its warmth over the calm waters. The bay itself is rendered in gentle hues, with reflections of the sunset and distinctive vertical elements that seem to dance on the water's surface, suggesting reeds or perhaps the organic motifs characteristic of the Art Nouveau movement. In the foreground, waterlilies with their rounded leaves and softly glowing blossoms draw the eye, creating a sense of depth and foreground against the liquid expanse. Furthermore, the silhouette of a cozy dwelling perched on the rocky shore, flanked by elegant trees against the twilight, portrays a peaceful isolation, inviting contemplation of nature's beauty. The distant hills provide a backdrop of subtle gradients, further enhancing the stillness of the bay. As a piece within the 'Scottish Coves' collection, this print celebrates the unique charm of Scotland's coastal landscapes, offering an artful tribute that will allure connoisseurs and admirers of both nature and artful representation. It is a perfect addition to any space that seeks to evoke a sense of calm and the timelessness of nature's allure.
Let the fragmented tranquillity of Nairn Beach at dusk grace your living space with this evocative cubist rendition. The print captures the final fleeting moments of daylight as the sun dips below a serrated horizon of distant hills, casting a kaleidoscope of muted purples, blush pinks, and warm oranges across the sky. Angular shapes and interlocking planes merge seamlessly to depict the rhythmic waves lapping onto the shore, with reflections of the day’s last light dancing upon the water's surface in geometric harmony. In this piece, the traditional cubist palette is softened, inviting contemplation and providing a window into the serene Scottish coastline. The bold segmentation of the composition speaks to the innovation of the Cubist movement, allowing viewers to witness the landscape through a prism of abstracted forms and shifting perspectives. The artwork is an ideal choice for those enamoured with the unique Scottish seascapes and lovers of modern art alike. It offers a contemporary interpretation of nature’s beauty, ensuring that each viewing is a fresh experience, with new details and depths revealed upon each exploration of its complex tapestry.

As the day's last light casts its golden glow over the tranquil waters, this evocative print captures the serene essence of a lone angler fly fishing on the River Esk at golden hour. The rich, vibrant orange and yellow hues of the setting sun reflect dazzlingly across the rippling surface, carving a shimmering path that leads to the distant, gracefully silhouetted hills. In this illustrative portrayal of the Scottish landscape, the scene is alive with dynamic contrasts; dark, expressive brush strokes define the riverbanks and the sparse, outstretched branches of the trees, which stand as silent witnesses to the solitary fisherman's dance with nature. The painterly sky is alive with movement, with bold, sweeping lines giving the impression of the clouds being whisked away by an unseen force, while circular motifs echo the gentle disturbance of water by the evening's gentle breezes. The fisherman, depicted in solitude, stands as a figure of calm and concentration amidst the glorious chaos of colour and form, his stance a testament to the peaceful pursuit of the sport. Further off, an anchored boat suggests the possibility of company or the anticipation of a quiet return journey after the day's endeavours. This print, an important piece within the 'Scotland Fly Fishing' collection, offers not only a window to the majesty of Scottish nature but also an introspective reflection of a moment in time where an individual is at one with the elements. It is a piece that will not only stand as a captivating visual focus but also stir the viewer's own memories of serene, undisturbed moments in the embrace of the natural world.
