Bring Old World Beauty To Your Home With Scottish Landscape Paintings

Maybe you have visited Scotland and been enchanted by the haunting beauty of its craggy mountains or its peaceful villages

. Perhaps you have Scottish ancestors and want to be able to see with your own eyes the place they left behind. The reasons people want to own Scottish Landscape paintings are as many and as varied as the people who purchase them.

Maybe you dream of traveling to Scotland someday. Maybe it was a painting of a Scottish castle that inspired your dream. Even people who have no connection whatever with Scotland can fall in love with the mist rising on a Scottish Loch or an image of green rolling hills. A fine artist can capture the rich colors and textures of Scotland in a way that speaks to you.

Scotland's history is exciting and romantic and sometimes tragic. Much of that history is preserved in the architecture of the country. Monuments and churches and ancient stone houses are themselves fit subjects for an artist's study. Against a backdrop of a misty loch of a green meadow they become scenes to be revisited again and again.

Visitors to Scotland often return with a particular memory that seems to haunt them. Maybe it's a rainbow over a tiny village church. It might be fishing boats with the summer sun setting behind their masts.

An artist who knows and loves Scotland may have painted a scene nearly identical to the one you recall. When you see it in the catalog or on the wall you will know you must own that painting.

Some artists can be commissioned to paint a particular scene for you. They may never have painted the particular bridge you love so well but they may have seen it. They may have photographed it. An artist who lives in Scotland may be close enough to walk across the street and make sketches for the painting you want.

People who have traced their ancestry back to Scotland may have found a particular place that is important in their family's history. They may want a painting of that village or castle or battlefield to help them remember and tell the story of their family's origins.

An old photograph of a barely remembered ancestor can be the basis of a painting that will tell, in a way the words cannot, the family heritage. Translated from black and white to color the subject of the photo can be painted wearing the clan tartan posed in front of a landmark mountain or house or castle. Future generations will be able to look at this portrait and see the clan and the land and the man they came from.
