The light shows that dance across Scotland's lochs are mesmerising, and I've spent years trying to capture their magic. This painting was born from a stay in Plockton, on Scotland's wild west coast.

Watch how the storm clouds part, letting golden rays break through to illuminate the water. These fleeting moments haunt you as a painter - the way light transforms the landscape in seconds, creating drama between darkness and brilliance.

I feel incredibly grateful to have witnessed this particular display. The contrast between the brooding sky and those heaven-sent beams of light created exactly the atmosphere I've been trying to capture for so long.
