I painted this Kelpie (water spirit)onto a slate heart for fun really. I live near The Kelpies, very large stunning, outdoor sculptures in Scotland and I felt like painting one of my own. Weatherproofed for outdoor use.

First painting in 15 years done! Loved doing it and I’m finally back in the zone after a lot of tears and stress that I’d forgot how to paint. Arisaig Silver Sands campsite in Acrylics. #artsky #scottishart

A double portrait shows two young women outdoors in a garden-like landscape. At left, Dido Elizabeth Belle, a young Black woman, leans forward in motion with a direct, lively gaze and smile, her head tilted toward us. She wears a luminous white satin dress with a low neckline, pearl jewelry, and a white turban topped with a dark feather. She carries a basket of grapes and peaches in her arm. At right, Lady Elizabeth Murray, a young white woman, sits in a pink-and-white silk gown with lace trim, floral hair ornaments, and a pearl choker. She holds an open book in one hand while the other reaches toward Dido, visually linking them. A blue drapery sweeps between them. Light blue sky opens behind Dido while deeper shade trees frame Elizabeth, creating a dynamic contrast of movement and poise.

This rare dignified representation of a Black woman in 18th-century British portraiture presents Dido and Elizabeth as intimate companions and near social equals. Yet, it is also layered with hierarchy and coded symbolism as Elizabeth’s book and composed pose suggest education and gentility, while Dido’s fruit, feathered headwrap, and animated movement convey Georgian ideas of exoticism and empire. That tension is central to the work’s power. Dido, the daughter of a Royal Navy captain and an enslaved mother, was raised at Kenwood House in Lord Mansfield’s household, where she was educated and lived in relative comfort, but not as fully equal in domestic and social practice.

As Lord Mansfield was one of Britain’s leading judges, Dido’s life also intersects with the legal history of slavery in Britain. He is closely associated with the landmark Somerset v Stewart (1772) decision, which limited the forced removal of an enslaved man from England without legal basis, while stopping short of abolishing slavery across the empire. This portrait’s warmth and visual closeness form a rare image of kinship and dignity shaped within a world still structured by racial and colonial inequality.
