Earlier in the year, I had a fabulous walk in Glen Torridon, way round the back of Liatach and Ben Eighe. It was one of those chilly but gorgeously sunny days of March.
The mountains and valleys here are on a grand scale which is always emphasised when the tops are snow covered. The views were absolutely stunning and, after my sojourn in epic New Zealand, reminded me of how great our Scottish scenery can be.
This bold painting is a contrast to the monochrome series that is showing in Beauly Gallery. It was painted in acrylic immediately after my return from Torridon and tries to capture both the joy and the icy nature of the day.
The painting will be in Leakey's Bookshop and Cafe in Inverness till mid August.
