Fresh contemporary paintings capturing the unrestrained beauty of Ireland’s western coastline

I create original seascape paintings revealing the hidden beauty of the rugged coastline along the West of Ireland. Using photographic references, I bring to life colourful paintings that capture the unsuppressed beauty of the sea.

The artworks capture the magical, fleeting essence of light so that we can contemplate the beauty and intensity of these transient moments a little longer before the temporality of the setting subsides and disappears to time.

The remote imagery of the Wild Atlantic Way evokes a quality of reminiscence, a connection to ‘pastness.’ The original paintings are created in a subtle, fresh colour palette offering a contemporary edge to the work while capturing the nostalgia of times past.

All original artworks are hand-crafted in Co Mayo.

💙Why is looking at the sea so calming?💙

💙The colour blue is associated with feelings of calm and peace🩵 Listening to the ebb and flow of waves naturally relaxes the brain💙 so simply staring out to sea can change our brain wave frequency and lure us in to a mild meditative 🧘‍♀️ state🩵

💙Hope this painting brings the owner lots of Zen moments💙

💚I like to change up the colour palette 🎨.. Blue is the predominant colour, but I love the greens in the newer pieces💚

❓️Do you like the green/grey palette or the blue/pink palette best❓️

💚Green is the colour of the day💚

💚Green house gases warming the ocean and melting ice in the polar regions change the temperature and amount of freshwater in the Atlantic💚 the weakening of the AMOC current is scary 😨

💚Painting a snippet of the Atlantic Ocean from photographic references of beautiful Keem beach in Achill💚
