Painted in November, 2012. I like painting sunsets, the vivid colours are attractive and enjoyable to paint.

Autumnal Briar Leaves 2
From Rostellan Wood. I rarely repeat the same subject matter one after the other, but I had such a good time with the first briar leaves painting that I had enough appetite to do a similar subject. Anyway the colour scheme is very different to the other briar leaves painting!
Autumnal Briar Leaves – Sold
Discovered during a walk in Rostellan Wood in October, 2012. There were some amazing bright-coloured briar leaves that day.
Heron – Sold
This bird was wading around in the pond in Fota Gardens.
View of Dungarvan Harbour from Hevick Pier
Rain is coming in the distance over the hills. In Ireland when dark, rainy clouds approach over seas, the seas can turn a deep green.
Ferns
This view is from above the ferns looking down. I like the effect, reminds me of a kaleidoscope or a vortex.
Small Tortoiseshell Butterfly – Sold
This butterfly is a common visitor to Irish gardens in summer. Sold.
Magnolia Blossom – Sold
This was painted when my second exhibition was coming near, so I worked hard to make sure it was ready in time.
Cornfields at Loughane near Shanagarry, July 2012 – Sold
Back to acrylics with this. Painted from life, at the side of a road looking North. A great experience to be painting outside in the open air, it’s how I started out 13 years ago doing painting. Time to complete 12 -13 hours.
Kite Surfer in Garryvoe, November 2011
The weather conditions were special this day because usually when the surfers are around it’s dull and cloudy but this was a rare day; windy and sunny.
