The Great Stone Chute, Sgurr Alasdair, Isle of Skye, Scotland.

It gives me chills looking at our photos taken of the Black Cuillin mountain range. A lug on the sole of P's walking boots was cleanly sheared off when he 'stone-surfed' his way down the Great Stone Chute.

“Autumn Sunset, Isle of Skye”.

Pastel on paper, approx 81mm x 104mm.

A memory/feeling drawing of a chill and damp autumn evening camping on the Isle of Skye. The setting sun cast a hint of warmth on the distant mountains.

6B pencil on cartridge paper. Another nighttime dive into my subconscious.

The darker, lined area on the left reminds me of bark on a tree.

Harbour view.

This is the reference photo for my next drawing, taken in Oban, Scotland.

I like the limited palette, the silhouetted boats and the atmosphere of calm at the day’s end.

The jagged Black Cuillin mountain range on the Isle of Skye looking hazy and blue as the sun was setting.

An analogue photo from a camping trip. There's something atmospheric about the fuzziness of pre-digital cameras that I really like.
