About The Artwork

The Large Acrylic painting River of Life is about a Journey of Wonder and Beauty Are you, like I am, fascinated by the concept of the river of life, the idea that our lives are like a journey along a flowing stream that leads us to different destinations and experiences? Father and son are paddleboarding down a river in Provence on a balmy night. Stars are reflecting in the velvety midnight blue water. The contrast between the dark and the light, the earthly and the heavenly help create a magical dreamlike scene that conveys a sense of tranquillity. The paddleboarders travel down the river while sharing their bond under a star-studded sky. The stars are a reminder of the vastness and beauty of the universe, as well as the guidance and inspiration that we can find in our dreams and aspirations. Are we taking the time to appreciate the wonders and joys of nature? To connect with our inner self and our loved ones? Please note: This acrylic on canvas is ready to hang. Framing is not required. All my paintings are varnished to add a protective coat against dust. Only the highest quality archival fine art grade acrylic paint is used on the surface gessoed and prepared by myself. Packing: All work is packed professionally using protective compressed foam boards 2 cm deep so that your painting arrives safely. Thank you for taking the time to look at my work.

Wandering through the landscape we're touched by its mood and light, we live in it, and it lives in us. This magical union is where my paintings are born. How can I make tangible on a paint surface a world that is full of magic and poetry? My finished pieces do not mirror a subject matter but are a representation of emotions felt in a specific time or place. Often the fleeting effect of a particular light and colour in nature are held somewhere in my visual memory. At some point, this takes centre stage on the painting I am working on. It may appear during the process of creation without an obvious connection to the subject matter at hand and yet, it adds another dimension, a particular atmosphere. These processes are ways and means by which I express my connection to nature in all its richness and variety. I am an Irish artist living and working in Provence France My work is rooted in the Romantic landscape tradition. I hold a Bachelor Degree in Fine Art (BFA). My work is in collections in France, the USA, Great Britain and Ireland.
