The Sleeping Warrior Arran Artist Proof Collector Print

About this painting.

As a Scottish artist, I'm constantly drawn to the dramatic landscapes of my homeland. The Isle of Arran, in particular, holds a special place in my heart. This original painting, "The Sleeping Warrior, Arran," is my attempt to capture the mystical beauty of the island's northern hills as they form the iconic silhouette of a resting giant.

I've always been captivated by the way the light plays on the mountains, especially during sunrise and sunset. In this piece, I've used a palette of rich, atmospheric colors to convey the ever-changing mood of the Scottish weather. The bold strokes and layers of paint are my way of expressing the raw, untamed spirit of the landscape.

For me, painting "The Sleeping Warrior" was a deeply personal experience. It's more than just a depiction of a landmark; it's a reflection of my connection to the Scottish wilderness. I hope this piece brings a sense of that wild beauty into your home and that you'll feel the same sense of awe and wonder that I did while creating it.

This original Scottish landscape painting is a perfect piece of art for anyone who loves Scotland, the Isle of Arran, or simply appreciates the power and beauty of the natural world. It is a unique and timeless piece that will be a conversation starter in any room.

Thanks for viewing and reading about my artwork, and please don't hesitate to get in touch with any questions, Kevin.

Own the Exclusive Artist's Proof | A Unique, Signed Fine Art Print

Before I approve any of my paintings for a new print run, I work closely with my printers to create a single, perfect test print. This is the first one made—the one I personally inspect in my Gourock studio for colour accuracy and quality against my original painting.

By tradition, this unique piece is called the Artist's Proof (A/P). It’s my final seal of approval. For each of my paintings, only one of these will ever exist, making it a truly special collector's item for those who want the most exclusive version of my work available.

I've chosen the highest quality materials to ensure this proof is a work of art in its own right. Here’s everything you need to know about this unique print:

A True 1 of 1 Original: This is the only Artist's Proof for this painting. Once it's sold, no others will ever be created, making it the rarest version of this artwork.

Hand-Signed and Certified: I personally sign, title, and date the print by hand. I also mark it with 'A/P' to certify its unique status as the official Artist's Proof.
