The forest edge
The forest edge
This painting, created at the forest's edge near Ardgillan Castle in Dublin, was completed during the Dublin Plein Air Festival. On a sunny day, I found myself captivated by the interplay of light and shadow within the deep undergrowth, presenting a compelling and challenging composition.
In this piece, the small flowers of the brambles are shrouded in shade, yet a few delicate elements of the plants catch the light, creating a striking contrast against the darkness. This exploration of the undergrowth offers a unique perspective, revealing the hidden beauty that thrives in such an environment.
I aim to delve deeper into this subject matter, as there is an entire world to discover when you focus on the intricacies of undergrowth. I highly recommend visiting Ardgillan Castle and its surroundings to appreciate the scenery that inspired this piece.

Artwork Details
I use artist grade materials for all my work to guarantee colour vibrancy over time. All paintings are varnished to protect the work using a satin varnish which results in a semi gloss finish.
Original paintings come framed unless otherwise stated. Frames are float frames and are supplied by Strand Framing in Cork. These can easily be changed if you prefer to have a custom frame job done.
