This commissioned painting captures the hushed stillness of winter at the Roe Pot on the River Dee—a scene rendered in a palette of sepia and earthy tones, evoking the timeless quiet of the Scottish landscape in snow.
Almost monochrome in mood, the composition leads the eye along the snow-covered banks toward the water’s gentle bend. Soft snow clings to evergreen branches, and the trees recede into a mist-shrouded distance, their forms dissolving into the pale light of a winter morning. The river, dark and calm, reflects the cool quiet above—a study in contrast and calm.
Created as a personal commission, this painting offers more than just a landscape—it’s a portrait of place and memory, a moment held in stillness.
If you have a favourite location that carries meaning—whether a seasonal view, a hidden spot by the water, or a place tied to memory—I welcome the opportunity to create a bespoke painting that honours it. Commissioned artworks make beautiful, lasting gifts, and a deeply personal way to connect with landscape and story.
