This one is from early 2013 - The distinctive drumlin islands in Clew Bay, Ireland. It's a scene I have painted many times but I think this is my most successful effort at capturing the light and mood of the area. 24"x30" Acrylic on canvas. It is currently listed in the sale section of my shop - have a look here. There is a sale going on! Original paintings on canvas and paper - 50% off and prices starting at $50. Small abstract seascapes, large New York Bridges and a selection of MUFC pieces, all at least 50% off the regular price. Have a look here. This is a detail of a larger landscape piece based on the Connemara landscape. The layers of acrylic from previous renditions add interesting textures. I've been painting over a lot of older works recently, which I've struggled to do in the past. It's difficult to admit when something is rubbish (most of it is), but I'm finding it pretty theraputic and somewhat liberating lately. 10"x10" Acrylic on canvas (detail) 2014 Further experimentation with red, white and black paint - painted quickly with knives..
