Still Waters and Wild Waves (50 original illustrations)

Still Waters and Wild Waves is a beautiful book to capture the waves that move us. It features over 50 original illustrations of dramatic seascapes and reflective rivers, alongside photography of stunning places that inspired the author’s artwork.

A blue-green sketchbook sits at the edge of my studio desk. It is covered in decorative paper, and is now frayed and tattered. These marks are evidence of its travels – as far north as Shetland and as far south as Isles of Scilly.

It has sat beside me on beaches and cliff tops, on small island planes and huge ferries, on trains and bicycles.

Some of the pages are stained with Scottish rain and spilt coffees. This sketchbook holds scribbles and memories that tell the tales of still waters and wild waves.
