This painting is a cherished memory from our journey through Northern Europe, where I first encountered the Giant’s Causeway. As I walked down toward the iconic basalt columns, I was swept away by the fairytale landscape: the rugged cliffs, the sweeping coastline, and the meeting of land, sea, and sky in perfect harmony.
When I returned to the ship, I chose this scene to paint because it beautifully balanced those elements and let me dive into the challenge of mixing greens with my limited palette. It was a lesson in capturing the natural movement of the grass and the majestic presence of the cliffs, all leading the eye gently to the sea.
In the end, this piece became a timeless, classic reflection of that magical walk to the Giant’s Causeway—a moment of nature’s artistry gently held in oil.
Please note: This painting can be varnished or left unvarnished, according the preferences of the buyer. Varnishing will delay shipping time in order to allow the piece to fully dry.
