ABOUT THE ARTWORK

This is an original acrylic painting on stretched canvas. My style involves covering the entire surface, in this case with warm colour, and building up the image with many layers of thin glaze. The result is a painting which, when properly lit, will reflect the light through the layers to reproduce the warm atmospheric glow of the morning. The forest is on a hill behind our house, in South Bohemia, where I live and paint. I was walking with my dog and the deer heard our footsteps. I took photos and sketched the composition and returned to my studio to start the painting that day. Acrylics dry much faster than oils and this allows me to build up many thin layers over a few days. Masters, such as Turner, used similar techniques with gouache and oils but these took many weeks or months to complete.

I was born in Sligo, Ireland in 1967. I now live with my family in South Bohemia, Czech but I also return regularly to Sligo to be with my father and to enjoy the Atlantic coastline. I paint in both locations. I have worked in over 30 countries overseas mostly in challenging emergency and humanitarian environments. I have had discs removed in my neck and lower back and due to nerve issues I must now paint with my right wrist and arm in a fixed brace. But painting is my physical and mental therapy and it gives me much joy to share my art with you.
