Alexander Miller – Bonnie Lad
£425.00
“Bonnie Lad is an expression that means ‘hello, how are you’ in Newcastle upon Tyne – as in ‘Alreet Bonnie Lad’. You’ll hear it all the time if you go to a pub and watch all the old chaps greet friends as they come and go.
In Scotland, it’s more of a description for a good looking guy. While I usually try to make the characters appear as though they could be anyone, I kept seeing a resemblance to George Clooney’s under the bonnet of this one.”

Over The Sea is a signed limited edition print of the painting of the same name by Alexander Millar. "A while back I had the privilege of meeting the great Jesse Rae. I remember a good few years ago sitting to watch one of my favourite programmes at the time called "The Tube" which was filmed in the Tyne Tees studios in Newcastle and my ears soon pricked up when I heard the fabulous song "Over The Sea" and the video at the time was sheer brilliance Even now it's been voted as one of the best videos ever made. To every Scotsman it was like hearing the pipes after a while away and the hairs immediately stood up on the back of my neck. Well fast-forward twenty odd years and here I am standing talking to that very man; him holding the sword that flew across the sea from the States back home to Scotland. I said at the time "wow Jesse, this is like music history that I'm holding in my hands" and without dropping a beat he said with a wry smile " so am I" .. And he's right. If you can get a chance to listen to some of his back catalogue of music, you won't be disappointed. If there was ever a musician waiting to be lifted back on to the world music scene when so much of the industry is characterless and dying on its feet, well it's this man.

"My love of Scottish history has been influenced by various visual interpretations of my nation's story through paintings, films and TV. So it’s no surprise that the iconic Eilean Donan Castle has always fascinated me. The castle's unique location on the junction of three sea lochs close to the Isle of Skye allows it to be illuminated by misty dawns, Atlantic sunsets and brooding mountain storms. The light from the sky and from the surrounding water constantly change the texture and mood of its fortified walls and main keep. Truly everyone’s idea of a noble Highland stronghold!

"When I was creating work for my Youth and Young Manhood portfolio, I drew inspiration from old photographs of my Grandad a a young man. I was also influenced by a new TV series that a lot of people were talking about - so a number of my drawings and paintings also drew inspiration from the BBC series Peaky Blinders" Boutique, Framed, Signed Limited Edition
