There is indeed much artistic activity to write about this Spring. So here goes...
I am very happy to inform you that some of my paintings are now hanging in the Green Gallery, on the top floor of St.Stephen's Green Shopping Centre. Paintings can be viewed/purchased during normal opening shopping hours at the gallery. The Green Gallery sells a broad range of contemporary art from both Irish and International artists. The Green Gallery is known for its variety in style, price range and excellence of quality. A comprehensive framing service is also available. Exhibiting artists include Graham Knuttel, Mark Baker, George Callaghan, Tom Cullen, Vincent Keeling, Alan Kenny, Jonathan Knuttel, Arthur K Madderson, John Morris, John Schwatschke, Norman Teeling, Niall O’Loughlin, William Mulhall, and many others.
Their website may be viewed at www.greengallery.ie
Very shortly I will be delivering a number of new paintings to the Sheep and Wool Centre in Leenane. This centre is run by the O'Toole family, and houses a museum, craft shop and restaurant. You can visit their website at www.sheepandwoolcentre.com
And looking a little ahead, I am very excited at the prospect of staging a solo show at the Waterside Theatre in Derry next September (www.watersidetheatre.com). More details of this show will follow...
May will see me participating once again in the annual Outdoor Painting Landscape Competition in Lisdoonvarna, which is run by Christine O' Neill at the Burren Painting Centre. This is a weekend I would strongly recommend to all landscape painters. Visit www.burrenpaintingcentre.com
Lastly, I am looking forward to working outdoors some more as the temperatures rise (albeit very slowly!). I have recently joined a number of art groups, Plein Eire and Plein Eire West (www.pleineire.ning.com). Hopefully this will mean I will have some more company on my paint outs! Last week saw me capturing some beautiful springtime colours in a favourite spot of mine, Mount Usher Gardens. These images will be posted to my website soon.
Hi, Niamh:
ReplyDeleteIt looks like I have the privilage of being the first to comment on your new site. Keep everyone posted when you have time, on what's going on in the plein air community. I look forward to following your progress, as your work is so vibrant
Good Luck,
Myles
