Lost Cottage On the Poet's Way Loop, Sheeps Head, West Cork
Greetings from County Limerick, where I create drawings and paintings to celebrate the beauty, culture and history of Ireland and her people.
A painting that encapsulates late summer on the Irish peninsulas: fields turned golden by sun and wind, waving and flowing with the Atlantic breeze against the mountains of the next peninsula over. This ruined cottage in the middle of the field evokes a simpler life when those who lived here lived much closer to nature, and you can easily imagine the family inside relaxing after a hard day's work on the land or the sea, reading the paper or practising tunes on the fiddle or tin whistle.

Acrylic paint on 3-D canvas, 25x35 cm (9.8x13.8 inches).
Deep-sided canvas, with hanging hooks and string, ready to hang. Unframed - but you can still frame it if you wish.
This acrylic painting captures the essence of rural Ireland: fields of grasses turned golden in later summer rippling in an Atlantic breeze, with faraway mountains across the bay forming a picturesque backdrop to the ruined cottage in the middle of the field. We encountered this cottage while hiking The Poet's Way Loop, but given the views all around us, it could also easily be called The Painter's Way Loop - the warm and vivid grasses seem to rustle in the wind, contrasting with the stillness of the stone cottage, and the dark mountains over the bright sea behind it. You can't but imagine how it must have been to live there, the warm nights by the fire after a day's work on the farm, or out at sea, with the ocean winds blowing outside, maybe practicing your fiddle or tin whistle or reading the paper. A perfect artwork for lovers of Irish history and culture, songs and stories.

Orla Clancy Contemporary Art sells artworks made by Irish artist Orla Clancy. Works sold include original drawing and paintings, works on paper and fine art prints on paper.
Orla's considerable body of work includes vibrant landscapes of places she has been to and loved, as well as read about, and works derived from sketches and photos of often random people, which she refers to as 'peoplescapes'. These are not portaits, more snapshots of moments in time which capture a social or relationship dynamic, in which the figures are often turned away from the viewer, or depicted with indistinct facial features, thus allowing the viewer to subconsciously project his or her own story into the painting, and so a narrative is created.
