Landscape art by Amy Holden
Hello and welcome!
Welcome to the online platform for Adventures with Landscapes!
My name is Amy and through this website I plan to share with you my adventures, big and small, with landscapes and landscape art.
My work captures interplays between the ever-changing qualities of the Scottish landscapes and our evolving connections with them. Infused with lively colour and light my paintings embody the characters of landscapes and our shared experiences of them.

An adventure in colour, light and connection
Colour
I love to capture the colours of the land and landscapes around us. I see the world in full colour and showing the full spectrum of colour can help to tell a ladscapes many layered and evolving story.
Light
Dancing light around a painting can really help to capture the character of a landscape. The interactions between all the elements in a landscape with light is everchanging and capturing a moment of that ephemeral quality can be truly magical. Along with the colours of a painting, it is this that I feel can help a piece truly sing with its own voice and capture the imagination of the viewer.
Connection
The inter-connections between the natural elements, land, air, light, water, and between people and landscapes over time is the continuing story of a landscape. I try to capture a snippet of those connections in a painting but also between the painting and the viewer. I want it to feel that you are being drawn into a painting and in return it sparks a memory, a feeling or is simply able to provide an embrace back to you.
