Pear and Grapes

Pear and Grapes - oil on canvas - 16"x16" - sold

Started this piece a couple of weeks ago when the RTE film crew came to document my work at the studio I was keeping in Cill Rialaig.

They took some video of me working on it in it's initial stages but I never had a chance to finish it that night due to being so exhausted after all the days excitement.

Came home to Dublin and set up again on an old antique desk in my studio.

With this piece I worked to convey a sense of movement and balance through light, shadow and arrangement.

Hope you like it.

Yesterday marked my third painting session at the Royal Hibernian Academy.
Being in there is so energizing - will post new images of works made soon.
