Balliness Bay Print

Balliness Bay with Tory Island on the horizon, is a place from childhood where my friends and I would spend long summer days in the cold Atlantic sea (which is the sea that comes in there) learning to swim and fishing from the pier, which is not in this painting as it's been obscured by the small hill in the foreground. I've had lots of people who know this area well say that they to have so many great memory's of this place. So I'm inspired by the memory of walking down that road with my friends on summer days without a care in the world and I think people would have a similar memory of this bay when they look at it, although it might not be a warm summer feeling they get as this was a cold February day that the photography was taken. The original painting was painted in oils on canvas and I want to show how deceiving the weather can be in Donegal. It may seam like a fine day but with that colour of blue in the sea and maybe the long shadows and lack of foliage or growth, plus the huge storm cloud in the distance, whether it's coming towards us or just after been overhead, to me that is Irish weather in a nutshell. Deceiving.
