Nael Hanna

where land, sea, and sky collide in a symphony of colour and texture. Hanna’s thick impasto and sweeping, gestural brushwork create a landscape that feels alive with weather and movement.

The foreground is built from rugged, textured strokes of white, brown, and ochre, suggesting eroded cliffs or windswept fields. Above this, a luminous band of light opens across the horizon, contrasting sharply with the brooding sky. Deep purples, reds, and storm‑charged greys swirl overhead, evoking the fierce and changeable conditions that define Scotland’s east coast.

Hanna’s ability to fuse abstraction with landscape gives the work its emotional intensity. Rather than depicting a literal view, he conveys the spirit of Angus—its wildness, its drama, and its enduring connection to Scotland’s fishing heritage.
