The Bothy Watercolour Greeting Card

A square watercolour greeting card featuring a Highland Bothy, painted by local artist Julia Anne. Thoughtful, atmospheric, and sustainably printed in the UK. The Bothy In Watercolour: Shelter in the Wild The Inspiration Behind the Artwork A Scottish bothy is a small, rugged shelter found in the remote, mountainous landscapes of the Highlands and Islands. It offers a simple but vital refuge for hikers and climbers Staying in a bothy is a lesson in simplicity. Most lack modern comforts, with no electricity or running water. Yet they offer something vital: shelter, warmth, and safety. There is something timeless about sharing a dram by a fire while a storm moves across the hills outside. It is a quiet and enduring part of Highland life. Julia Anne, a local watercolour artist, is drawn to this contrast between open landscape and simple shelter. Her work captures the feeling of a Highland white-out, where the land feels vast and untamed, and the bothy becomes a place of refuge from the storm. Whether you’re marking a special occasion or simply sending a note to brighten someone’s day. This card carries a sense of place and calm in every detail.
