This painting is Inspired by my years living on the Isle of Syke... and also to celebrate Beltane.
My eldest was born on Skye, and I feel that wherever we've brought a kid into the world, that place becomes embedded in your heart? I mean, as if Skye wasn't already a magical place... it now has so much significance for me and my eldest.... so much so, that I actually feel homesick when I see Skye featured in a tv programme.
Why did I ever leave?, I hear you ask! Practical measures were needed. I was, at that time, in Donnie Munro's Band (Runrig) and also touring with my own band, and it just got way too much, travelling to Aberdeen, Glasgow or Edinburgh to gigs.... so we took the decision to move to Edinburgh.
Now further round the coast in East Lothian, which I do absolutely love. It offers so much! Forests, hills, beaches, castles and amazing wildlife, including the famous Bass Rock and Isle of May.
But for tonight, as I share this video with you, I'm back up near the Cuillins and having my breath taken away...
Hope you enjoy this, either to paint along, or to watch and relax. I SO enjoyed preparing this for you!
All my love,
Holly x x x

Hello my friends, I enjoyed watching your videos, keep it up
I hope you always good luck 🙏💜
Beautiful.
Thanks Christine! 😊
Holly, this was so fascinating to watch with all of the layering and final touches at the end! I love your choice of colors with these delicate white flowers….which remind me of wild roses. I also enjoyed the music! The Isle of Skye is on my bucket list! Thanks for sharing your talent❤
Awww Janet, you are my new best friend! Thank You! I'm so glad you enjoyed it, it's totally made my day!!! Glad you liked the music too.... I bought it via Pond5, I forgot to mention. I wanted to transport whoever watched it :O) Definitely worth keeping Skye on your bucket list. The whole of the Highlands are spectacular. Thanks again Janet, appreciate you taking the time to leave this comment! 💚💚💚
This is really beautiful and I love your style. I have all kinds of gouache and need to start using it. Thanks for the wonderful inspiration.
Thanks so much Kandice! I'm glad this has given you gentle nudge towards using your gouache 😊
So pretty! Ill try this. My goauche paint doesnt go smooth like that but ill try my best to get that consistency. Thanks for sharing this!
Oh Hi Merlinda! Ah yes Gouache can be challenging. And different makes react differently too. You can use white watercolour if you have that? or Dr Ph Martin's Bleedproof is good www.amazon.co.uk/Dr-Ph-Martins-Bleedproof-White/dp/B008CRS1CM/ref=sr_1_2?crid=5Q5XTWRLVXXK&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.9uZBYU2x4cSEMSAFYcKgBYkRE50IOq4kDi5gw1mpFIwmMBvRHjsOwqPexpuuemjY.NtvJhr-fnRgAerWwgpuP2SdioXBJ1w1eLoEh6rnCvi0&dib_tag=se&keywords=dr+ph+martin%27s+bleedproof&qid=1714683503&sprefix=dr+ph+martin%27s+bleedproof%2Caps%2C148&sr=8-2
Let me know if I can help in any other way. Hope you enjoy it 🥰
