Islay known as the jewel in the crown of Scotland's malt whisky industry was our choice to begin our love story and adventure into the world of Scottish Whisky , and what an adventure its been so far !
The Story so far.....- after being Inspired by the wonderful whisky documenatries online- WHISKY - The Islay Edition and also The Golden Dram we went hotfoot over to beautiful Islay for a two day whistlestop photoshoot !
Artist - Daniel Campbell began the labour of love paintings in oils of the stunning pituresque romantic Scottish landscapes and distilleries...
After our photoshoot we where very grateful to be invited to The Feis 2024 on Islay where we had 3 wonderful days at different distilleries showcasing 6 of the now 10 completed original art pieces along with a promotion of our art prints to festival goers from around the world to take home with them.
