"Islands of Sun and Ice" was Stephen's second solo Exhibition at the Birmingham Botanical Gardens, Edgbaston, Birmingham, UK. Its name arose from Scilly as the Islands of Sun and Iceland (where we spent a month's holiday in 2010) as the Island of Ice. Stephen was not able to take all his watercolour painting equipment to Iceland so he took acrylic inks, paper and a smaller support board. All the Icelandic works are, therefore, done in ink and not watercolour. There are also a couple of smaller ink paintings done on Scilly but the rest are watercolour or mixed media.
PLEASE NOTE: none of the ink paintings are available as prints and all the original paintings have been sold.
