Medium: Gouache and oil pastel on paper
Size: 30 × 42 cm
Location: Cairngorms National Park, Scotland
Orientation: Landscape

Discover the quiet beauty of the Scottish Highlands in this expressive landscape inspired by Cairngorms National Park.

A winding golden path follows the edge of a tranquil loch, leading the eye towards a small secluded cottage nestled beneath the rolling green mountains. Cool turquoise and blue tones contrast with warm ochre, olive green and earthy brown, capturing the distinctive atmosphere of the Scottish landscape.

Created using gouache and oil pastel, this original artwork combines painterly colour fields with expressive lines and textured marks. The contrast between the calm water, rugged hills and winding path creates a sense of depth, movement and peaceful solitude.

This piece celebrates the simple beauty of the natural world and the feeling of finding a quiet place away from everyday life. It would make a beautiful addition to a living room, bedroom, study or nature-inspired interior.
