The Bull McCabe Painting

David Donnelly was born in Balbriggan, North Co. Dublin,Ireland, He has lived beside the sea all his life, and is constantly drawn to its ever changing moods and colours. His home is literally within a stone’s throw of the sea, so naturally, it inspires so much of his work. He is an admirer of the works of contemporary artists such as Davis Curtis, Alvaro Castagnet, and Igor Sakharov. In the past, he worked as a draughtsman and freelance cartoonist. His work appeared in most Irish National, and U.K. newspapers and magazines. In 1998, he took early retirement from his job as a draughtsman, and rekindled his love of painting. He rapidly established himself as an artist whose work is in great demand. He works mainly in oils and acrylics, painting a diverse range of subjects from landscape to marine scenes, mainly in realistic styles.
