A coastal croft with haystacks and cottages, oil on board
A bold and expressive coastal landscape depicting a cluster of whitewashed cottages with warm ochre roofs standing within an open field near the shoreline. In the foreground the land is rendered in rich, sweeping strokes of green, red and earthy brown, leading the eye toward the buildings which form the central focus of the composition.
Beside the cottages stand several rounded haystacks, painted in warm tones that echo the colour of the roofs, while beyond them a strip of deep blue-green sea sits beneath a muted sky. The painting is executed with confident, energetic brushwork and a vibrant palette typical of McIntyre’s work, conveying both the texture of the land and the rugged character of coastal crofting landscapes.
