The Sea Cliffs of Mangersta
Uig, Isle of Lewis

The sea cliffs and beach at Mangersta are battled by huge Atlantic breakers endlessly.  It is a place of great beauty and boasts a nice beach also.  It is a favourite place of mine to paint due to the energy of the sea and its currents and the ruggedness of the Lewisian gneiss cliffs.  This painting was completed after visiting a Joan Eardley exhibition in Edinburgh.  Her work is energetic and very inspiring.
