Sarah Bold's "Big Little Scotland (16)" captures the dramatic essence of the Scottish highlands in a compact yet powerful composition. This oil on cradled panel (15 x 20 cm) presents a moody, atmospheric landscape where rugged mountains emerge through swirling mist and low-hanging clouds. Bold employs a sophisticated palette of slate blues, deep purples, and earthy russets, creating a sense of depth and mystery through her expressive brushwork. The contrast between the textured, almost turbulent mountainscape and the serene strip of calm water along the bottom edge creates a compelling visual tension, evoking the changeable nature of Scotland's weather and the emotional power of its wild places.
