Edinburgh from Calton Hill

A3 mixed media on canvas covered board.
 
Original artwork (not a print) by Kirsteen Lyons-Benson BA (Hons).
 
An atmospheric and expressive view of Edinburgh seen from Calton Hill, created with layered mixed media, flowing line work, and soft blue washes. The painting captures the city’s famous skyline in an energetic, semi-abstract style, with recognisable domes, towers, and spires emerging through loose sketch-like marks and drifting colour. Warm ochre and copper-toned lines weave through the cool Scottish blues, giving the work movement, light, and a feeling of memory and imagination combined.
This contemporary Edinburgh cityscape balances architectural detail with freedom and emotion, reflecting the character of the city rather than a strict realistic view. A unique original painting inspired by Scotland’s historic capital and its ever-changing light and atmosphere.
