About This Image

Edinburgh is one of those cities of which I’m sure I could never get enough. If you’ve walked the Royal Mile in Old Town, I have no doubt you understand my meaning. Edinburgh is just a fabulous old world city. It’s very much a living city, but there’s so much truly old architecture that there are moments when you gaze up the street… and well it feels like a place that has never really changed, a time machine of sorts.

There’s something almost fantasy like about this pair of classic British Telephone Boxes on those quaint streets. It felt like something that would have been illustrated had it not actually been real. I think that was the inspiration for this particular photo art piece. I wanted it to feel as if this image were ripped from the pages of an antiquarian book.

And isn’t that the feeling you get on those classic old streets of Edinburgh? I know it was the way I felt when I was there. And the more my time wandering the Royal Mile retreats into the past, the more like a dream it feels. I think as a somewhat indirect result now when I do new art pieces that reflect my time there, they become even closer to the aspect of a daydream.

Do you daydream of visiting Edinburgh? Or maybe you’ve been like I have and it’s still the stuff of daydreams? I think whatever reason brings you here that this particular print will speak to you of an afternoon in that beautiful old city.

Note: These K6 Telephone Kiosks are an Historic Scotland Listed Building. Additionally Edinburgh’s Old Town is a UNESCO listed World Heritage Site.

How Can I Help?

At the end of the day, it’s important to me that you can put a face with the art you’re considering purchasing through my site. Aside from the print vendor who ultimately prints and ships your order, this is a one man show. The person who made the art is the same one who is typing this message and the one who will answer your questions if you drop me a note.

You are not a number and I care that you are happy with whatever art you might buy here. I’m here if you’d like to ask questions before or after purchasing. And I’m also happy to work with you where possible to customize the work you’re buying. Maybe you’d like a tweak to the shape of a print to fit in with your existing wall art. Or you’d like to add a little nod to someone special in it? Just ask! I also keep a running list of subjects I don’t currently have but people are seeking. So if you enjoy the style of my work but didn’t find quite what you were looking for, please do let me know.

I’ve been an artist for 15 years now and most of that time it’s been my full-time passion. And it matters to both the endorphins in my brain and the food I put on the table for me (and my cats) that you find the experience of purchasing the products offered here to be a pleasure.
