Study Art
The north, west and Hebrides are full of inspirational landscapes, breathtaking beauty, unusual geomorphology and spectacular coastlines. They’re home to a wide range of native flora and fauna, with rich machair colours, vivid lichen, purple heather, and textured cliffs.
It is home to many artists - all of whom find varied inspiration in their glorious and ever-changing surroundings. From traditional crofting life to sweeping beaches, majestic cliffs and iconic machair, it truly is an artist’s paradise.
