“The key characteristics of my work are colour and light. I am not trying to recreate what is there, and although the subject matter is important as the instigator of the painting, gradually it becomes less significant as the emphasis changes to composing with colour, shape and texture.”
A beautiful, vibrant original artwork by Scottish colourist artist Claire Harrigan RSW. As a distinguished member of the Royal Scottish Society of Painters in Watercolour, Harrigan infuses each stroke with a profound appreciation for her surroundings. Harrigan’s unique ability to harmonize color and light invites viewers on an immersive journey, where the whisper of a breeze and the dance of sunlight become palpable. Through her work, she not only showcases the natural wonders of Scotland and beyond, but also invites us to embrace the profound sense of wonder and tranquility they evoke.
