Description

This painting portrays a man guiding a white horse beside a wooden harrow, through a sunlit wheat field while seagulls wheel overhead. Warm golds sit against a deep, cool sky; light and shadow shape the figures and suggest a passing breeze. Energetic brushwork and layered paint give the scene a tactile, luminous surface that highlights the horse’s coat and the field’s grain. The composition emphasizes the companionable rhythm of rural labor and quiet resilience. A quietly confident piece that will enhance a living room, study, or hallway with a touch of nature and steadiness.

I was born in Balbriggan, North Co. Dublin in 1948, and  still lives there in my home by the sea. From childhood, I had the gift of a natural ability to draw and paint. I am a self taught artist
When working as a freelance cartoonist, my work appeared in most of the National and local newspapers and magazines. On taking early retirement,  I rekindled my love of painting.  I soon established myself  as  a full-time artist whose work was in great demand. I work mainly in oils and acrylics, painting a diverse range of subjects from contempory to impressionistic styles. I exhibits twice annually.
My work is found in private collections in Ireland, Australia, France, U.S.A,  England, and Wales.
I feel priviliged, and grateful  that so many people have purchased my works to hang in their homes or offices.
