As the sun dips closer to the horizon, casting its amber glow across the sky, this cubist-inspired print encapsulates the serene beauty of Nairn Beach during the golden hour. The artwork features a spectacular panorama where geometric forms and fragmented perspectives converge to create a tapestry of light, colour, and shape.
The composition is bathed in a symphony of warm golden, orange, and yellow tones, with hints of creamy whites and subtle blues adding depth and balance. Abstract shapes give form to the rocks in the foreground, their edges catching the light and casting contrasting shadows that play with the viewer's perception. These rigid figures contrast with the fluidity of the sea, where the layered brushstrokes suggest gentle motion rippling across the water's surface.
In the backdrop, a simplified yet recognisable landscape silhouette offers a reference to the familiar tranquillity of coastal vistas. The beaming sun, a circular motif in pulsating shades of yellow and white, dominates the sky, surrounded by radiating lines that suggest the overwhelming energy of the setting sun.
This print is not just a unique take on the picturesque shores of Scotland but also a celebration of the cubist movement's capacity to deconstruct and re-envision nature's splendour. A harmonious blend of abstract forms and natural beauty, this piece will enliven any space with its vibrant colours and dynamic composition, inviting contemplation and admiration in equal measure.
