Madeleina Kay Art

I spent 4 weeks in Kosovo and North Macedonia in June / July 2026, below are some watercolours I made of the local buildings and architecture. Christ the Saviour - (derelict) Serbian Orthodox Cathedral, Pristina, Kosovo Mosque, Prizren, Kosovo Ethnographic Museum, Pristina, Kosovo Skopje Aqueduct, North-Macedonia Skopje, North-Macedonia Saint Trinity - Russian Church, Skopje, North-Macedonia Xhamia “Mëshira” Mosque, Skopje, North Macedonia

I spent two weeks in Kosovo, staying in the capital, Pristina and visiting the town of Gračanica and the city of Prizren during the trip.

I've been exploring the capital of North Macedonia, which has some very impressive historical architecture in the centre, a charming old town bazaar with cobble stone streets and a sprawling metropolitan area with small churches dispersed in between apartment blocks. Peculiarly, on the river in the city centre there are three large pirate ships, two of which are used as restaurants, whereas the third appears to be abandoned but can be accessed by a bridge from the river bank.

Sketches from my recent trip to Cyprus. I stayed predominantly in Paphos, which has several archaeological sites, as well as a nearby monastery and nature trail in a gorge - which I visited. I also took the intercity coach to Limassol, and a bus from there to the Ancient City of Kourion (which is apparently on UK owned territory!).
