A piece I finished today: Oil on wood, 70 x 100cm. I absolutely love painting the sea - I don't think anything compares (not even mountains!). #oilpainting #seascape #ocean #irishart

A photograph of my 'studio' with the easel in the centre to provide a sense of the scale of my latest painting.

A very expressive seascape in oils: the sea in the bottom third, built up with swirling marks in blues, greys, whites and raw umber. Bright white light behind the waves, reflected off them, and a sombre sky of grey and blue brush marks

The finished (I think) piece: Oil on deep canvas, 40 x 120cm. #oilpainting #landscape #mountains #irishart

A panoramic mountain landscape in oils. Limited palette of dark olive, raw umber, unbleached titanium, warm white, new gamboge (ochre) and lapis, over super heavy gesso roughly applied to create a lot of texture. A mountain range in autumn or winter, with sparse vegetation and bare rock. Dark shadows punctuated by light, the ridge line smudged with mist and sunlight, a lone bare tree in the foreground. The sky is predominantly fair-weather clouds, with traces of yellow light and patches of blue (lapis, in very small quantities!).

I may have tweaked this a little after a glass of wine 🙄 Oil on panel, 70 x 100cm #oilpainting #seascape #irishart #coast

Messy seascape in oils: viewed from a beach, waves breaking onto the rocks in the foreground with dark, sheer cliffs either side. An ochre sky, with dark clouds to the left, with an orange sun appearing; patches of blue, white and pale yellow - also reflected off the ocean.

My latest painting: Oil on panel, 70 x 100cm artachart.com #oilpainting #landscape #seascape #coast #irishart

An almost Classical style landscape in oils: Expansive sky with sweeping clouds, shadows and patches of lapis near the top of the panel. The impression of land beneath the clouds on the left, leading across the foreground, with areas of olive and new gamboge/ochre, almost lost between the drifting clouds and waves breaking onto the coast at the very bottom of the composition. More lapis beneath the foam.

A more distant shot of the painting described in the other image, this one including the easel, with a chair on one side, curtains behind and the world's most beautiful dog on the other side, holding her favourite ball in her mouth.

I think this painting might be finished, but I've been staring at it for too long! Oil on panel, 70 x 100cm. #oilpainting #landscape #hills #moonlight #irishart #maybefinished 🤔

Landscape in limited palette of Payne's Grey, Raw Umber, Green Gold, Old Gamboge & Warm White. Rolling hills dominate the composition: largely dark on the left side of the pass, but with rock and flora detail; Suggestion of a small cottage nestled into the lower hillside, then most of the right half of the panel lit up by moonlight. Small strip of dark night sky at the top, with bright white cloud in front of the moon and a dark line along the ridge, emphasising the curve.

Look at the stars, look how they shine for you .. ✨🥰 #art #artist #astronomy #irishart #smallbusiness #raven

An ink illustration arranged on a desk with pens, prushes and pots of the materials it was made with. The artwork features a raven perched on the ground behind a telescope, looking over it at the sky, while maps and carts are scattered on the ground behind him.

Latest work in progress. Possibly a few tweaks needed here and there, but otherwise about done I think. #oilpainting #portrait #selfportrait #irishart

Portrait of a woman facing the viewer. Dark outline of her face and features, with long hair framing her face and brushed or blown to one side. A melange of reds, umbers and indigo in her round-necked sweater, echoed through her hair and bright red marks on forehead and cheek.

Sketching with leftover oil on Fabriano no5 this afternoon. #oilpainting #sketch #seascape #irishart

Semi abstract seascape and very difficult to describe! Blue-grey sky above a rough, thickly painted sea. Ochre and orange coast left of the composition, with blurred colours and lines suggesting land in the foreground. Limited palette of blues and ochres, with a bit of black and white.
