Hebridean Machair No. 2.
“Hebridean Machair” no. 2.
Pastel on 160gsm ingres paper, approx 110mm x 60mm.
Remembering a sunny day on the Isle of Barra, Outer Hebrides, Scotland. There wasn’t a breath of wind, the insects could be heard among the wild flowers of the machair and the sun warmed my bones.
