Elgol
I delight in creating a fusion of paintings and poems produced as signed and numbered Giclee prints. I have included in my gallery the original oil of "Elgol" along with the giclee print which includes the poem. The Art & Verse print measures 483mm x 329mm. The original oil measures 760 x 500mm. The poem reads:
Elgol
Elgol, where, swathed in
Mists and mystery,
The Cuillins reach the sea.An Authentication Certificate
accompanies each print explaining my inspiration for this work:
This view across to the Cuillin Mountains from the fishing hamlet of Elgol on the west coast of the Isle of Skye brings back wonderful memories of a glorious painting tour on which I was accompanied by my daughter and our ebullient Australian uncle. Hidden in the cliff face is a giant sea shell.
