The Scottish Highlands are world renowned for the lush Celtic traditions and breathtaking landscapes. Tucked into a countryside full of ancient castles and sprightly green hilltops is the old town of Inverness. This city has been called the cultural capital of the Scottish Highlands and contains eloquent examples of ancient architecture and historical landmarks.
The city was established thousands of years ago on the strategic location at the mouth of the river Ness. Mighty battles were fought, and renowned works of art sprung up, yet the city never lost its love for the natural greens and soft hills of the surrounding landscape. The river Ness, which runs through the current city, is surrounded by parks full of precious natural flowers and dense green trees. National parks flank the city from nearby islands and notable places along the coast.
Looking out from one of the city’s many bridges, one can imagine the delight of an artist like Patricia Locke seeing the brilliant colors and unique construction of the city and its landscapes for the first time. Palates of green with touches of blue sky and deep navy waters seem to flow quite naturally onto the brushes of painters and the dreams of other artists. The deep greens with hints of natural contrast that appear in Patricia Locke’s latest set of green jewelry fit in perfectly with the inspiring trees, hills and rivers that make up the stirring landscape around Inverness.
