‘Beinn Nuis, Isle of Arran’, Acrylic & Pastel, 2009, 76 x 23 cm
I thought I’d put this painting up this week seeing as my blog has been all about our latest trip over to the Isle of Arran. I did this painting a couple of years ago after an interesting walk up into the Arran Hills. It had been a particularly cloudy day with the hills well shrouded in mist as we’d headed up. Then gradually the cloud had broken around us giving amazing views as bits of the hills around us cleared. Sometimes we could see nothing but a small section of the ridge …then it would all disappear again before a summit would break free. We just sat for a while and watched this magical and slowly changing scene. An amazing day and just a hop on the ferry away from where we live …I love it here in Ayrshire.
