Sherry Palmer, Member 27,151, is a landscape artist who returns to the same location again and again to get to know it. She found the perfect place on the Isle of Skye, on the Northwest coast of Scotland and has been travelling there for over 36 years. She says that the island landscape has helped to make her a better artist.
This painting is of Beinn Sgritheall, on the mainland, seen from the shore on South Skye in autumn 2025. She told us, “I have painted the mountain for several years now and it continues to inspire me to say something, in paint, about it, and its clouds!”
How can one resist the beauty of this part of the planet. So wild and rough, so pure and lovely at the same time.
I love your artwork and how you capture the very nature of your favourite spot.
I’ve also returned to the Scottish highlands and west coast since 20 years now. Every time when I get back home to my country I feel a kind of longing to return back there.
Sherry, I admire your return to that favorite location. I guess I also have spots I can’t get enough of. They are magically and never disappoint.
