Velocity

£595.00

40.6 × 50.8 cm (16 × 20 inches) | Original Acrylic on Canvas | Framed

There is barely a moment to witness it. One second, the kingfisher is perched; the next, it becomes a flash of brilliant blue, diving with breathtaking speed and precision towards the water below.

Velocity captures that extraordinary instant, freezing one of Britain's most captivating birds in full flight. The vibrant turquoise plumage contrasts beautifully against the soft, atmospheric background, while the sweeping composition creates a powerful sense of movement and energy.

Inspired by the beauty and agility of the kingfisher, this original acrylic painting celebrates both the elegance and determination of one of nature's most remarkable hunters. Every detail has been carefully painted to convey not only the bird's striking colours but also the anticipation and focus that define this fleeting moment.

Painted in acrylic on canvas, Velocity makes a striking focal point for any home or workspace. It is an ideal piece for wildlife lovers, bird enthusiasts and collectors of original Scottish art who appreciate paintings that capture both realism and emotion.

Commissions

Commission an Original Painting

If you're looking for something truly personal, I'd be delighted to create an original painting especially for you.

Whether it's a much-loved pet, a favourite landscape, wildlife, flowers or a place that holds special memories, every commission is created with care and attention to capture not just the subject, but its character and atmosphere.

The Process

  1. Get in touch to discuss your ideas.

  2. We'll agree on the size, composition and price.

  3. A 50% non-refundable deposit secures your booking.

  4. I'll create your painting and share progress updates where appropriate.

  5. The remaining balance is payable before collection or shipping.

As every painting is created by hand, completion times vary depending on size and my current workload. I'll always provide an estimated completion date before work begins.

If you have an idea you'd like to discuss, I'd love to hear from you.
