Capturing the vibrant essence of summer on the Scottish coast, this expressive piece brings West Sands, St Andrews to life with exuberant colour and dynamic brush strokes. At first glance, the scene invites you into a world where the blue of the sky meets the azure tones of the sea in a perfect symphony, while blushing shades of sand warm the canvas, reflecting the gentle kiss of the summer sun. In the foreground, peaceful waters act as a mirror, reflecting the kaleidoscopic sky and earthy tones of the terrain in an impressionistic display of light and colour, offering the viewer a double take on the natural beauty of the setting. Figures are abstracted into suggestive forms that gently wade through the shallows, with their reflections casting a dance of silhouettes upon the water's surface. To the right, a copse of trees stands guard at the fringe of the beach, their lush green canopies offset by dabs of warm gold, hinting at the playful interaction between light and shadow. The horizon line softly separates the vivid land from the expansive sky, where clouds are rendered in broad, confident strokes, capturing the fleeting nature of the coastal breeze. This print is a celebration of the Scottish coastline’s unrefined charm, rendered in a style that conveys the emotion and movement of this beloved summer locale. It's an invitation to lose yourself in the beauty of a moment forever arrested in time, where each brush stroke tells a story of the wild, rustic elegance unique to Scotland's shores.

Low Tide – Staithes, 13" x 10" After four decades as a successful and respected architect and nationally recognized architectural illustrator, Bill Hook is on the threshold of a whole new world of artistic expression. Breaking away from the exacting constraints of the commercial world, he is just beginning to experience the challenges and rewards of plein air work. A turning point came in 2007, when he received a fellowship to live and paint for two months in the tiny hilltown of Civita di Bagnoregio, Italy. In two months, he produced over 60 drawings and paintings. He returned to Civita in May, 2010 and then continued on to the small English fishing village of Staithes, where he enjoyed the changing weather and light of the Yorkshire coast. Although his work is informed and influenced by his architectural background, he now feels free to break away from realistically recording a scene and to focus more on the quality of light and the feeling of a place and time. Church Street – Staithes, 13" x 10" White House I, 10" x 6" Bill was juried into the NWWS Annual Open Exhibition in 2009, and into the Richeson 75 Landscapes Show in both 2009 and 2010. In September, 2010, he participated in his first major plein air event -- the 5th Annual US Open in Coupeville, WA -- and had two pieces selected for the show. He received an Honorable Mention for one of those paintings and it also sold at the live auction. Bill continues to pursue both plein air and studio work. He currently has six pieces hanging in a collective show at The Artique Underground Gallery in Frederick MD.

The lowly potato changed color photography forever. In 1903, two French inventors and photographers, Auguste and Louis Lumière, used the potato as the basis for their patented process in creating color photographs, or Autochromes as they were called. It was a simple but ingenious technique—crush potatoes into tiny particles; separate these minuscule starch particles into three; add red, violet and green dye; mix onto a glass plate; brush off the excess; flatten the dyed particles onto the plate between two rollers—thus creating microscopic color filters; fill in any gaps with carbon; brush with light sensitive silver bromide. Now you have a photographic plate ready to take color pictures. By 1907, the Lumières’ technique had infected the photographic world with “color fever.” Many early color photographers claimed painting was dead. The future was the Autochrome. (Apparently someone forgot to tell Picasso.) Unlike many of the European or Russian Autochromes from the turn of the twentieth century—which are usually filled with citizens at work or idly posing in narrow streets—these early Autochromes of New York are often empty of people as if the monumental nature of the city’s buildings made humans seem irrelevant, Lillputian, or simply...

As the day concludes, Tobermory Harbour embraces the tranquillity of dusk, an enchanting moment immortalised in this striking expressionistic piece. Capturing the calm waters mirroring the gradients of twilight, this print invites the viewer to experience the serene charm of a Scottish harbour as day turns to night. Vibrant hues of cerulean, royal blue, and deep purples blend with the warm oranges, pinks, and subtle golds of the descending sun that bathes the scene in a soft, ambient glow. The expressive, dynamic brushstrokes convey movement within the stillness, as though the sea gently laps against the hulls of moored boats, faithfully waiting for their next voyage. Foregrounded by the harbour’s edge, where rich, cool shadows are interspersed with reflections of light, your eyes are drawn across the tranquil water to the quaint town buildings of Tobermory that edge the firth. Here, nestled amongst a tapestry of greens and earth tones, the charming homesteads and structures hint at life’s simple pleasures, untouched by the hustle of modernity. Anchored sailboats are rendered in a manner that is both familiar and otherworldly, suggesting an essence of timelessness through their sturdy forms and reflective masts. This print is not just a visual treasure but an invitation to partake in the contemplative quietude of Tobermory Harbour as it nestles under the protective embrace of a dramatic Scottish dusk. This piece, part of our 'Scottish Harbours' collection, offers a unique take on the natural beauty of Scotland's maritime vistas through the lens of Expressionism. It is an offering that promises to bring the majesty of Scottish landscapes into the heart of your living or working space.
