Repair At The Pier, Portmagee, Ireland
6"x6" oil on gessoed masonite archival artboard
"May the holes in your net be no larger than the fish in it."
~Irish Blessing
This painting is worked in both brush and knife. The pier there in Portmagee is such a busy place, always a hub of action. It's exciting with all the colorful boats coming and going, and the various work being done.

Far End of Portmagee (Ireland), Looking Back
6"x8" oil on Belgian linen mounted on archival panel
"May God grant you many years to live,
For sure He must be knowing
The earth has angels all too few
And heaven is overflowing."
- Irish Blessing
Being a bit of an arm-chair traveler today. I'm lamenting the fact that this is the first summer in five years that I was not able to go over to Ireland. But I do think about it all the time! So I had a bit of fun reminiscing through my old photos and playing some Liz Carroll cd's, planning what else I'll be painting this week. I'd like to fit in some time for a larger one this week as well!
