About this artwork
Cairn Holy is a piece that I created whilst visiting the Cairn Holy Cairns in Dumfries and Galloway (Scotland).
This was created en plein air using a mixture of natural handmade pigments, pastel and charcoal. I wanted to capture the essence of the landscape, whilst reacting to the site in my own individualistic way. Among the Neolithic stones are two primitive figures, which wouldn't look strange within a cave art setting; they belong within the… stones themselves, reacting to them.

Verity is a painter and drawer with a formal background in art and illustration, deeply influenced by her upbringing in the English countryside. She employs traditional media—graphite, charcoal, ink, watercolour, and pastels—to create carefully researched, nature-inspired works, blending precise realism with a profound sense of place and personal reflection. Her evocative imagery captures both the beauty and fragility of the natural world, conveying a tender nostalgia and urgency for preservation.
