Spirit of Place
‘Spirit of Place: Artists, Writers & The British Landscape’ by Susan Owens
A panoramic view of the British landscape as seen through the eyes of writers and artists, from Bede and the Gawain-poet to Gainsborough, Austen, W. G. Sebald and Barbara Hepworth. With each new generation, the British landscape has been reframed, reimagined and reshaped by distinctive voices and evocative imagery. Each account or work of art, whether illuminated in a manuscript, jotted down in a journal or constructed from sticks and stones, holds up a mirror to its maker and their world.

ISLAND BLUE GALLERY
Island Blue Gallery is an art gallery and gift shop located at Baliscate, near Tobermory on the Isle of Mull. We have a beautiful, light space filled with works by many skillful Scottish artists ranging from the mysterious and tranquil sweeping landscapes of Garry Brander to the mythical and surreal fantastical worlds of Matylda Konecka. A lot of the prints we stock have a distinctly Scottish feel and truly capture the essence of Scotland's landscape and wildlife.
