Plockton has always felt to me like the tropics of the west coast: palm trees, bright houses and that soft, dreamlike light. So that’s how I’ve painted it, with a plum sky, hills burning pink and tangerine, and cottages in every colour I could find.
White-gabled cottages tumble towards the shore, their chimneys paired like old friends. White masts cross the indigo, turquoise and coral of the harbour. Scraped, layered and spattered paint breaks up the flat shapes of colour, keeping everything a little restless.
I grew up on boats and have always wanted to sail to Plockton. I imagine arriving from the water: the smell of seaweed along the shore, the motion of the sea beneath me, and the village opening up ahead. The hills blaze with colour, while the boats rest quietly in the harbour.
