Hi, What do you look for in my paintings of Ireland?
…the new spirit of Ireland, …her timelessness, …the
muted color of her soft landscape, …or, the oh-so-fleeting
magical light that pervades her?
Perhaps it is the poetic, lyrical, almost romantic,
feeling of nostalgia,that you look for. All these
facets of her, and much more, are in my mind as I
travel the length and breadth of this island,-to capture
her in paint. My studio is nestled in the hills ,underneath
the Comeragh Mountains above, which overlook the Atlantic
Ocean. From here, I endeavour to capture the feel
of Ireland in my paintings.
By now, I guess, I have attained a certain standing
in the "Art World", having exhibited at
respected galleries in Dublin including the RHA. I
am also an elected member of the Art Association of
Ireland. What`s important to me though ...is to capture
the illusive colour and light of Ireland in a loose
and impressionist manner; but you are the judge of
that. the products …..in response to the demand for
my original watercolour paintings ,over 150 scenic
landscapes are also available in a choice of attractive
art prints and gifts, all designed with harmony in
mind.
Quality is assured because they are printed here
in my studio ,and every picture is packed by hand,
and kept as faithful to the original as possible.
a copy so naturally real, even the original gets nervous!
