This one is a recently finished commission. The basic composition was spotted in a sketch of mine and I was asked to blow it up to cover a large wall. It's a superb challenge to paint at this scale, believe it or not the adrenaline is flowing, paint is not acting how you imagined, chance comes into play.. That toughest part was figuring out when to leave it alone.

24"x36" Acrylic on canvas. Another square, multi-canvas take on the sodden landscape of the west of Ireland. Orange tinged grasses flank opaque, peat infused lakes. Ghost ridges from previous renditions of this scene add texture and some depth to the piece.

I've spent a bit of time working on these small pieces, mostly trying to figure colours and compositions out for larger pieces - I'll add a couple of more examples soon.

A painting I have reworked several times, I think it's finally finished. Inspired by the landscape of Burgandy in France.
The underpainting was done with brushes, but most of what you see here was applied with palette knives. The third in a series of street corner paintings. The first image is the full painting, the following four are details.
