Sophie Manns
Duart Castle, Isle of Mull, Scotland

£85.00

Duart Castle was the 14^th century home of Clan Maclean. It sits on a peninsula that juts out where the Sound of Mull and the Firth of Lorne meet. The painting depicts the castle from the Firth of Lorne with the Dun da Ghaoithe (to the right) and the Sgurr Dearg (to the left) mountains as a back drop. This along with the stormy sky and sea make the castle stand out in the landscape.

ARTIST BIOGRAPHY

Sophie Manns

We are delighted to welcome Sophie Manns to the Wallington Gallery, a talented young artist who describes her work as follows;

I am a local artist, who recently graduated in fine art from Leeds Arts University. Inspired by the dramatic Northumberland landscapes, I strive to capture the power, awe and wonder of the countryside and coastline through painting. I am heavily influenced by JMW Turner and the Sublime. I use oil and acrylic paint to create realism/abstract contemporary landscape paintings.

Exhibitions: Fronteer Open exhibition, Sheffield, December 2021.
