Evening Light, Horse Island — Scottish Landscape Limited Edition Print

‘You can feel the midges,’ commented one friend on first seeing this pastel. It was a calm, warm evening in midsummer — the kind of long Highland night that barely dims before dawn — and the painting carries that hush, the stillness that settles once the day-trippers have gone home. Horse Island, one of the Summer Isles, is seen here from Polglass across the water, its low outline catching the last warm light while the sky behind slips from amber into blue. Painted in 1999, the piece leans on soft pastel layering to hold that fleeting colour before it faded for the night. Limited edition prints are produced at 38cm x 25cm from the original pastel on card.
