Iceland landscape 2 (2025) Original Ink Drawing by Steve Potts

14 x 10cm (unframed) / 11.6 x 7.5cm (actual image size)

£150

Iceland sits on the boundary of two tectonic plates that are slowly pulling apart, and the evidence is everywhere in the rock. The dominant stone is basalt, formed when lava cools and contracts inward under its own stress, cracking into the distinctive hexagonal columns you see throughout the island. This little drawing, based on our visit in the summer of 2025, tries to capture in ink the stunning drama of that angular structure. I really love this little drawing because so much is packed into a tiny frame.
