'Old Harry' - Original watercolour painting of Old Harry Rocks with Purbecks - ‘Old Harry’ is an original watercolour painting by artist Kate Shephard, capturing the breathtaking beauty of Old Harry Rocks and the Purbeck coastline as seen from the air. This unique aerial perspective reveals the sculpted white cliffs and deep blues and greens of the Dorset coast with a fresh sense of scale and wonder. Painted using watercolours on high-quality watercolour paper, this piece blends delicate transparency with rich, layered washes to create a harmonious and expressive landscape full of atmosphere and movement.

As a Dorset-based artist, I often find myself drawn to the coast, especially this dramatic corner of the Jurassic Coast which holds personal significance and wonder. The contrast of chalk cliffs against the shimmering green-blue waters of the English Channel creates a natural palette that feels both calming and invigorating. ‘Old Harry’ is a celebration of nature’s quiet drama, and of Dorset’s iconic beauty.

This painting would make a striking addition to any space where tranquillity, nature, and coastal charm are welcomed. It would look wonderful in a living room, hallway, or study – particularly in coastal homes, holiday lets, or for those who long for the sea. Its soothing colours and sweeping composition make it suitable for both modern and rustic interiors.

‘Old Harry’ is also an ideal gift for nature lovers, walkers, or anyone with a love for the Dorset coast. It could make a meaningful present for a birthday, anniversary, retirement, or as a keepsake from a treasured holiday. For those who grew up near the sea or have fond memories of exploring the Purbecks, this artwork could hold deep nostalgic value.

As an original, this painting is one of a kind – a heartfelt reflection of a much-loved landscape by artist Kate Shephard. Let it bring a breath of fresh coastal air into your home.
