Colors of Winter

Oil on foamx 24 x 24 cm

Another heavily laden oil work I have just finished.

Once again I have used foamx as a base. The painted

image is one from the Gearagh in Cork. It's an area of 

such scenic quality that I think it would be easy to find

 a thousand paintings in just one visit.

Thanks for looking :)

Study of a Rembrandt self portrait in oils

oil on canvas 46 x 36 cm

Almost at the end of the art challenge now with the art group "The Galway Pub Scrawl"

Todays theme was "master copy" and so I had the audacity to try my hand at a facisimile

of a Rembrandt self portrait...

Thanks for looking :)

View across the bay

Oil on oilboard 40 x 30 cm

This is a view of the bay below the bridge at Glenavaud. 

The tide is out and the sky

 is full of that soft damp greyness

we are so used to here.

Thanks for looking :)

Plein air painting of the tide out at Youghal...

oil on canvas 30 x 20

I had the opportunity to meet up with the South West Plein Air painters on Sunday11th

in the seaside town of Youghal and despite the odd rain shower and strong wind it was a 

fun day out.I managed to get in this one of a small little harbor in the town and a few 

sketches also.

Thanks for looking :)
