The West Wind - Oil/Canvas - 28"x20" - sold
This is one of the large paintings on canvas created since my arrival in the Burren.
Along the coast you can find these beautiful trees that have taken on a permanent wind swept shape. There is an amazing energy in them. Even on a calm day they remind you how rough the west wind can blow.
I painted vigorously to capture the hysterical energy I feel pervades in the Burren and used a very limited palette to create these tones, nuances and colours.
Hope you like this piece.
