Dusk Over Arran and The Cloch Artist Proof Collector Print
Own the Exclusive Artist's Proof: A Rather Splendid One-of-a-Kind Signed Print
Right, full transparency here. Before I let any of my paintings loose on the world in a proper print run, I potter about with my printers to create a single, perfect test print. This is the first one off the press, the one I personally squint at in my studio for colour accuracy and whether it does justice to the original. Rather nerve-wracking, actually.
By tradition, this unique piece is called an Artist's Proof. It's my final seal of approval. For each painting, only one of these will ever exist, making it a genuinely special collector's item for those who want the most exclusive version of my work available.
Why Choose This Collector's Piece
A True 1 of 1 Original: This is the only Artist's Proof for this painting. Once sold, no others will ever be created. You'll own the rarest version of this artwork in existence.
Hand-Signed and Certified: I personally sign, title, and date the print by hand. I also mark it with 'A/P' to certify its unique status as the official Artist's Proof.
Museum-Grade Paper: I've selected German Etching paper at 310gsm, a rather marvellous heavyweight fine art paper renowned for its distinct, velvety texture. It captures the depth and colour of the original work beautifully, creating a genuinely archival-quality giclée reproduction.
Archival Giclée Print: This proof is created using the sophisticated giclée printing process with archival pigment inks, guaranteeing that the colours remain vibrant and true for a lifetime without fading.
Generously Sized: The artwork is printed in a substantial size, perfect for making a proper statement on your wall.

We Have Lots More Like This.........
Hello, we are Sostter....
Sostter began, as all good ideas do, with a lively conversation and a shared sense of frustration. Why had the world of independent design become so serious, so samey, so… beige? Where was the spark, the imagination, the sheer joy of discovering something that made you stop and stare?
We dreamt of a marketplace that celebrated difference — where curious minds could explore a world of independent brands, design-led makers, and thoughtful artisans. A space that felt exciting, human, and beautifully imperfect.
Today, Sostter brings together remarkable people and their creations — from London to Lausanne, Brooklyn to Berlin — uniting makers and discoverers through craftsmanship, creativity, and conscience. Every object tells a story, and every purchase supports an independent brand doing things differently.
This is just the beginning. But enough about us — step inside, explore our world, and see what catches your imagination.
Giving Back
We’re proud to support Sutton Night Watch, a grassroots UK charity making a real difference in the lives of those facing homelessness. Through regular donations of stock, supplies, and essentials, we back their mission to offer warmth, dignity, and practical help to anyone in need — right where it matters most.
