Inshore Waters

We had something of a minor indiscretion on Tiree for we bought a beautiful picture that called to us from the Blue Beyond gallery.  It’s an unusual piece, vividly depicting the intensive blues that form the skies and seas that surround the island, using both textiles and paint. Created by Susan Woodcock, who runs the gallery with her artist husband, Colin, she has dyed fabrics and layered them to create a seascape collage that draws the viewer into the scene. Like Tiree itself, the painting appears to change in different lights, embodying the restless, endless, shifting nature of the sea
