Loch Dionard
Loch Dionard, below Foinaven - watercolour, 24 x 36 cm |
For lovers of wild landscapes, there can be few places in Scotland better than North-West Sutherland. The rocks here have been dated to 3 billion years old, and whenever I visit this area I am aware of a sense of both great age and timelessness. A human lifespan is tiny compared with geological time, and so the landscape seems to be unchanging. And yet we can see how the rocks have been thrust up and folded, and then worn away by glaciers, in a process that seems almost incomprehensible. It's a place for allowing the mind to wander and wonder.

Your rich greens further echo the timelessness and the ongoing changes that take millennia to bring about... and that our presence too... is but a small part of this ongoing process of change. So "wee"... are "We" HA HA!
A grand watercolour piece Keith!
Good Painting!
Warmest regards,

All the best,
