Description
Storm Over Lambay 2009 Oil on canvas
Storms are stunning to watch and we get plenty over the islands. This one has the chaos of wildlife, yachts sweeping along with the downwinds and the blue of the sky split by the contrail of a passing aeroplane, all depicted with minimal brushstrokes. Not as easy as it sounds either.
Painting is my passion
For years I have been painting the view from my studio on the Burrow Beach in Sutton/Howth, and the area around this side of Dublin. This is my passion and what I love to do.
It is my own way of relaxing and rebooting my creative mind when it goes a bit pear-shaped and fuzzy when I get overwhelmed with stuff like accounts, bills and the uncertainty of making a living as an artist without a pension.
Most of all I love art itself in all its manifestations, old and new and to me, the art of landscape is always inspiring. If I have another life then all I want to do is paint on canvas.
These artworks are very personal to me as they are what I just love to do, not for a book or a commission or what I think people might like, they are my heart and soul. I hope they find a place in your heart and your home.
