Was quite special to share the Dublin trip with my 2 brothers too - reliving the tunes of our youth. Here we are with a few pals day before the gig 🍻

No been much action on my @bsky.app account for a while - work was kicking my butt this summer, but fortunately I had ten days holiday with Oasis' Edinburgh/Dublin gigs lined up, much needed R&R!

Feeling creatively and socially rejuvenated now 🥰 Amazing trip!

Freshly framed @scottlava.bsky.social ‘Great Showdown’ prints of Anora and Severance - nice additions to the ever-growing artwork collection in the house!

Been eyeing his work up for a while so glad to finally get around to buying some 👌🏼

The western edge of the Isle of Lewis is full of culture and colour.

As well as the famous Callanish Stones, it is also the home of the Harris Tweed Hebrides mill - where all of these beautiful cloths are stamped with the Harris Tweed®️ orb mark.

Made by the hand, woven by the heart.

Love the sound of the Atlantic Ocean 😍

The impressive and inspiring power of the sea was in full force during a Boxing Day walk along the cliffs.

New print of a photo I took at my parents house, of stags in their garden early morning - mounted as a gift for my father.

Merry Christmas to all clients, friends and followers, and thanks to everyone who liked work posts, bought something or just abided me for another year.

Hopefully you and your loved ones have a better festive holiday than Iain MacGilleEathain / John Mcclane and his family did in 1988…

With our office shutting for the holidays today, Cailean decided to get some last minute weaving in, under the watchful eye of the Harris Tweed®️ Fairy! 🧚‍♀️

They make quite a good team, don’t you think?

Created a ‘Succession’ print (in a ‘Godfather’ style, volume up for full effect!) to celebrate a great show.

Prints available at www.etsy.com/uk/shop/Dona....

For those who finished the show, there’s a little easter egg in there – see if you can spot it!

Scotland from the air a few weeks ago - had never seen the mountains and clouds like this before, was nice to watch as we drifted by.

Scotland saw its first proper snow of the winter last week. Time to get the warm coats out again...

This is Harris Tweed® - Made by the hand, woven by the heart.

I was asked to create an illustrated canvas for the owner of this boat in the Outer Hebrides, as a gift for his 21st birthday from family - love how this turned out.

Volume up! Another reel created as part of my HTA social media role! A fun day to be involved in 😍

Part of the inherent culture of our islands is how close-knit communities are. (1/3)

A hand-drawn illustration of a family dog as a Christmas present, commission for a mate from 2018.

Here’s the final full-colour sketch, along with the photo I based it on (Stornoway harbour in the background).
