The artwork’s distinct texture was created using black sand and reclaimed fishing rope, which I collected during a winter walk on Brittas Bay.
Specks of sand swim through my feet,
Warmth descends; A healing sheet.
I see a shape draw near; A beauty that I adore.
Heretofore, my wish was to live no more;
But now, I hold in my arms, my perfect paramour.
And now, I long for the roar of the golden shore.
(from “The Golden Shore”, by Clay Dubberly)

I am an artist and writer living in Greystones. I like to describe my art as “controlled chaos”; like waves crashing into land, a steady, calming rhythm that follows no rules but always tells a story. And telling stories is what I love. The same way that a book is telling a story to the reader, I want each of my paintings to tell a unique story to the viewer. I love creating big pieces of art with so many details that there is always something new to discover, whether you look at it from afar or from up close.
