"I was born and grew up in Orkney, so a lot of my inspiration is drawn from the sea, the natural world and folklore."
I spent a week on Orkney, um… some time ago. (I was taught to pronounce Stromness with an 'i' not 'e'.) The Ring of Brodgar was a highlight of the visit. Also, I like to make artistic coloured versions of my landscapes.
The Stoor Worm, a huge sea monster, terrorised the West
of #Scotland.
It was killed by burning peat thrust into its liver.
In its death throes, its teeth flew out and become the islands of #Orkney, #Shetland and the #Faroes.
All this was a long time ago.
