Description

Acrylic painting depicting an early morning sunrise over Cuil near Uig on the north end of the Isle of Skye.
I painted this painting in my studio from some quick sketches and I have used some artistic licence over the positioning of some of the houses.
I often paint sunsets and dusk scenes so so a sunrise makes a nice change.
It was a drizzly dull morning as I remember but occasionally morning sunlight would split the clouds and illuminate the land and sea below.
Caught in the light to the right of the painting is Captain Frazers Folly or "The Tower"
as most locals call it today. Also visible is Uig hotel to the left and in the middle on the hill is the local free church.
I put a boat in the foreground to help with distance.
This painting has been coated in two coats of protective varnish.
