Unexpected Connections

On arriving in Lewis in February 2013 after a discombobulating few months, Effie discovered that unwittingly she had put together a series of work relating to the Clisham, the highest point on the Outer Hebrides. She had been looking at it from many different angles fascinated by the shape and form. The results are in the gallery.

The Clisham from Callanish

It is not often that snow lies in the Outer Hebrides. This image was inspired by seeing snow on the Clisham, looking from the Callanish Stones in south Lewis.
This piece is framed in calico and bordered in a light grey patterned fabric.

66 x 47 cm (26 x 19 inches) SOLD
Low Hills on the Moor

Lewis is generally flat, but there are low hills which give contours to the moors.
This piece is framed in calico.

The Clisham from Morven 2

Carlaway Panorama

On a clear day this vista of hills can be seen looking south from Carlaway on the Isle of Lewis. It feels like a 180 degree width. In fact turning round through 360 degrees there is a continuous fabulous assault on all the senses, not just the eyes.
