Scottish Art - Paintings of Scotland:
Angus Mohr Piper
by D. Bruce Bennett
Angus Mohr Callin'
We could say Bruce's inspiration for yet another Callin' the Brothers style painting came straight from the Scottish Highlands, but we'd be lying. The real story is a good deal more, well, domestic.
Truth is, he shot the photo he used for this painting at a local summer concert-in-the-park. The piper? He's a member of Angus Mohr. Let's just say he and his "brothers" are Colorado Highland Celtic rockers, and leave it at that. (See? It's just not as far-off-misty-eyed-romantic when we admit it's from Longmont, Colorado, instead of Loch Lomond, Scotland.)

As you can see on our Highland Pipers, Drummers, Majors page, Bruce has created several paintings of a lone Scottish bagpiper silhouette in this style. Each one has been slightly different in size and coloration. The very unpredictable and un-duplicate-able salt technique he loves to use produces the one-off, heavy-rainstorm effect in all of them. In this one, the rains have taken on an aqua-blue hue.
Bruce typically paints his piper silhouettes solid black in these Callin' the Brothers paintings. But in Angus Mohr Callin', he's painted a very hip piper silhouette on a craggy mountaintop in shades of charcoal so that subtle details of his pipes and attire can show through.
This piece of Scottish art is huge 23 inches wide by 30 inches high. Once a mat and frame have been added to it, it'll be commanding enough to make a very impressive Scottish statement on your wall!
