This captivating print presents a stylised rendition of the majestic Creag Mhòr, also known as Meall na Aighean, reimagined through the lens of abstract artistry. The piece is a geometric marvel, where the natural silhouette of the Scottish Munro is transformed into a series of layered triangles, each slice hinting at the intricate contours and textures of the landscape.
Bathed in a serene palette, the artwork employs a gradation of cool to warm hues, mirroring the tranquil ambiance of dawn or dusk. Subtle shades of blue and green compose the base layers, evoking the lush, rolling foothills, while the upper segments transition into soft greys and whites, capturing the ethereal beauty of the mountain’s higher reaches shrouded in mist or snow.
The apex of the central triangle pierces the composition with a crisp, definitive edge, giving the piece a focal point that anchors the eye. This is flanked by two expansive sections of negative space, coloured in varying tones of peach and off-white, suggesting the expansive sky and the gentle play of light at the beginning or end of the day.
The harmonious blend of abstract shapes and nature-inspired colours offers a fresh perspective on the traditional Scottish landscape, making this print an alluring addition for those who appreciate both the grandeur of Scotland’s natural world and the evocative power of abstract art.
