Torridon in the highlands of Scotland

The view from Loch Clair towards Liathach and Beinn Eighe. Torridon

Way back in October 1997 I was staying at Torridon hostel (Scottish Highlands) to climb a few Munros. I was up early, and so took a walk along the shore of the loch to watch this dawn of a beautiful still day. The tide was in and the sea as flat as a mirror, perfectly reflecting the dawn sky. I originally painted this the same year, but decided to repaint it now 20 years later applying the skills and techniques I've picked up over the last couple of decades. Painted in oil on board 20x16 inches.

I'd spent a couple of days at Gerry's hostel at Achnashellach, when it started to snow heavily with clusters of flakes the size of a fist thumping into my head. Though pretty to look at the snowstorm carried on through the day and into the next morning. As it finally eased I set off for a moorland peak that I knew would be safe from avalanche. At 600m it offered views into the snow capped mountains in several directions, but none so stunning as this view into the heart of Torridon as the clouds finally retreated. The steep wall on the left is Liathach, and the peak on the right is Beinn Eighe, with Beinn Dearg sitting in the background. From the photo I produced this oil painting sized 30x20 inches on board.
