About This Image

On my first trip to Scotland a decade ago, I did see snow falling over Edinburgh one night. It was a light snow and barely accumulated. The next morning the only sign was a light dusting on the cars, but I’ll never forget the magic of seeing swirling snow against the street lamps of that beautiful old city. And every since I’ve dreamed of a scene like this one of snowy Edinburgh Castle.

Of course, one of the cool things about being an artist is being able to make something like a dream of a snowy Edinburgh Castle a reality in a visual art form at least. And the last time I saw Edinburgh castle, there might not have been snow falling, but it was night and there were beautiful dusk blue skies over the golden glow of those old castle walls, so I was not far from a starting point for this particular Edinburgh scene.

I definitely intended for this snowy Edinburgh Castle artwork to have a magical or fantastical vibe. There’s just something of the winter wonderland about this scene. From the snow filled esplanade to the wafting snow in the air, it feels like a page from a storybook tale about castles and knights from medieval times, doesn’t it? I half expect there’s a great feast going on inside the great hall while the snow falls outside on a cold wintry Edinburgh.

Some day perhaps I’ll manage to time a trip to Scotland where I really see a Snowy Edinburgh Castle but until then, I’ve exorcised this beautiful dream. Have you actually had the good fortune of enjoying winter in Edinburgh? Or do you have the same dream? Perhaps it’s the fairy tale quality of this Edinburgh art print that speaks to you? I hope you’ll pause for a second to share what it is about this particular print that caught your attention!

Note: Both Edinburgh’s Old Town (where the famous castle sits) and New Town are UNESCO listed World Heritage Sites.

How Can I Help?

At the end of the day, it’s important to me that you can put a face with the art you’re considering purchasing through my site. Aside from the print vendor who ultimately prints and ships your order, this is a one man show. The person who made the art is the same one who is typing this message and the one who will answer your questions if you drop me a note.

You are not a number and I care that you are happy with whatever art you might buy here. I’m here if you’d like to ask questions before or after purchasing. And I’m also happy to work with you where possible to customize the work you’re buying. Maybe you’d like a tweak to the shape of a print to fit in with your existing wall art. Or you’d like to add a little nod to someone special in it? Just ask! I also keep a running list of subjects I don’t currently have but people are seeking. So if you enjoy the style of my work but didn’t find quite what you were looking for, please do let me know.

I’ve been an artist for 15 years now and most of that time it’s been my full-time passion. And it matters to both the endorphins in my brain and the food I put on the table for me (and my cats) that you find the experience of purchasing the products offered here to be a pleasure.
