Featuring an Atmospheric Digital Collage Image of The Summer Isles from Achiltibuie by Cath Waters

A crofting whitehouse by the village of Achiltibuie set against the Summer Isles archipelago, which lies in the mouth of Loch Broom off the Coigach Peninsula in the North-West Highlands of Scotland. The place name Achilitibuie comes from Gaelic for “field of the yellow-haired boy”. The village is surrounded by some of the most stunning mountain and coastal scenery in Scotland.

Cath's digital collages combine landscape photography with mixed media and photographed textures - creating atmospheric artwork reflecting the calm and solitude of special places in Scotland.

For Achiltibuie from the Summer Isles, Cath has used a photograph of the peeling paint on the side of an old fishing boat in theyard at Achiltibuie asthe lower layer of the image. The upper layer is lichen on the surface of one of the Kilmartin standing stones. She has digitally coloured and blended sections of the stones and lichen, and subtly blendedwith other textures to create the finished piece.

The reverse side has a wood grain effect, and the board is presented with a hanging loop (not pictured).

Size: 230 x 170mm including handle, perfect for cutting lemons for a G+T!
