Capture the essence of a Scottish summer with this evocative expressionist print of the River Dee, Aberdeenshire. At first glance, the observer is drawn into a serene landscape bathed in the warm, golden glow of sunlight. The vibrant hues of yellow and gold swirl across the canvas, evoking the feel of a summer’s day, while strokes of deep blue and soft green create a harmonious contrast, depicting the lushness of the surrounding foliage and the majestic hills in the distance.

In the foreground, the river dances with life and movement, rendered in a palette of blues, whites, and purples, its surface reflecting the symphony of colour above. Strokes of vivid orange and scarlet infuse the scene with the energy of the untamed wilderness, as Scottish heather is suggested on the verdant riverbanks. A series of trees stand sentinel along the gleaming river, their forms abstracted and colours intensified to capture the mood and spirit of the setting.

Every brushstroke conveys not just the view, but the very breeze and breath of Scotland’s natural beauty in summertime. This piece, a member of the ‘Scotland in Summer’ collection, beautifully encapsulates the allure of Aberdeenshire’s landscapesa perfect addition to the home of anyone wishing to hold a piece of Scottish summer eternal.
