Returning To A Place Half Remembered Painting

Martin Irish was born in the beautiful medieval town of Shrewsbury, the birth place of Charles Darwin. He now resides in the Highlands of Scotland. His work is abstract in form, some paintings bold and lively, while others are more muted in their tones and mood. His paintings have been sold worldwide and he works predominately in oils. The rich abundance of color and textures that can be found within my environment is a constant source of inspiration to me. My Paintings take me on a journey, a journey that immerses deep within myself, existing as a thought, an idea. Paintings are created to evoke emotions in a nonlinear fashion. Bold, subtle, each forms its own conclusion. He invites the viewer to go on a journey but for them to draw their own conclusions.
