Where Do You Belong? Cill Rialaig exhibition

An exhibition of my paintings will open tomorrow, the 6th May, 2012 at the Cill Rialaig Gallery, Ballinskelligs, Co. Kerry. 26 paintings from the last 4 years, all connected with my various residencies at Cill Rialaig will be on show. They all have a strong connection to the landscape of the west, the colours of the earth, sheer cliffs, burnt heather, the vibrant gorse, all the subtle tones and atmosphere of the west coastline. The opening is from 12 to 2. Please come along if you can!

Earth Studies

 Here are some studies I did recently at Cill Rialaig Artists Retreat in Kerry. They, like a lot of my paintings are inspired by the earth, the land, the energy within the landscape and the atmosphere it creates. I find in the west, it is heightened dramatically, as opposed to the flat farmlands of Kilkenny where I live. These paintings along with many more will be shown at the Cill Rialaig Gallery for my exhibition in May/June.
