Geology at Dunnet Head

Along the Cliffs at Dunnet Head
Watercolour
26 x 36 cm

Another painting of the dramatic cliffs at Dunnet Head, a suitable setting for the most northerly point on the British mainland. The rocks here are sandstones, but there is a surprising variety of colours, from pale greys to red-browns. It was these colours that attracted me to this view.
