The Kelpies art gift range has been designed and created by North East artist Emily Ward. Emily's new range of art gifts featuring the horse head sculptures are proving very popular.
Emily's painting of The Kelpies has these majestic horse head sculptures rising from the ground set against a bright morning sun. The golden rays of sunshine cast a warming glow over The Helix parkland.
Emily Wards splashes of colour over her Kelpies print give texture to the light blues of the sky reflecting off the silver horse heads.
The Kelpies standing 30 meters high were designed by Glasgow based sculptor Andy Scott. They were completed in 2013 after 10 years in the making. Located in The Helix, a parkland between Falkirk and Grangemouth, right next to the Forth and Clyde Canal.
A kelpie is a shape-changing aquatic spirit of Scottish legend.
The horse head statues pay homage to the working horses of Scotland. The horses used to pull the barges along the canal and they worked in the fields where they proudly stand now.
The Helix is a new ecopark which has transformed underused land between Falkirk and Grangemouth. The ecopark has The Kelpies stand at the heart of this vibrant parkland, marine hub and busy visitor attraction.
The Kelpies painting is available as a print on a framed ceramic tile. Tiles are available in both a white and black frame.
The framed ceramic tiles are individually printed and hand finished with a splash of colour from Emily.
