From Tinto

This semi-abstract oil and cold wax painting captures the shifting drama of Tinto Hill in the Central Lowlands, as winter light breaks through storm-laden skies. With a moody, expressive tone, it reflects the tension between land, weather, and fleeting illumination.

Layered earthy browns and ochres form the hillside, their depth enhanced by a warm underpainting that radiates subtly through the surface. Sweeping palette knife textures and fine scratched marks evoke movement across the land, while flickers of magenta and teal hint at distant light.

Balancing atmosphere and texture, this piece offers a contemporary interpretation of the Scottish landscape - where raw power and quiet poetry merge.

A striking original work, it brings depth, mood, and presence to any interior - ideal for those drawn to the timeless character of Scotland’s land and sky.

This ready to hang painting measures 7" x 6.3" and is mounted and presented in a 12" x 12" black wooden frame with glass glazing.
