This painting took a long time to come into its own and I love how it eventually turned out. There are layers of past images, memories and tones that drop in and out of themselves conjuring up a muted and poetic sensibility.

The Collection

Iveragh is a collection of paintings rooted in the spirit of Ireland’s largest peninsula, a landscape defined by its wild beauty and deep layers of mythology, archaeology, history, folklore and tradition. Derrynane, at the tip of the peninsula, forms a central thread in this narrative, holding generations of family memories and connection. The work draws on the peninsula’s distinctive light, colour and atmosphere, exploring both the physical landscape and the sense of belonging it evokes. Rather than broad vistas, the focus shifts to intimate details - flora, rock formations, shifting light and subtle tones - that together form the essence of this place and open a path back into feeling and memory.
