ABOUT THE ARTWORK

I’ve been working on this painting for quite a while, building texture and then mining into the hillside by scraping back to reveal the paint below and making landmarks into the paint with channels and rivulets. The third and largest in this series of sunsets with warm and vibrant colours, it shows the last rays of the sun as it disappears behind a heather-covered Irish mountain at that precise moment when the sky seems to be ablaze with flamboyant colours, as if it was the last show. We know the sun goes down, it punctuates the cycle of life with a high point and once night sets in, we know we can look forward to a new day when the sun will rise again. Things move on and yet there is a continuity... This oil on deep edged canvas, 31.75″ x 31.75″ x 1.75″ does not require framing and is ready to hang.

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.
