‘Into the Woods’ oil and acrylic on canvas, 140 x 110 cm, 2021.
I spent November 2021 on an Invited Fellowship residency at Ballinglen Arts Foundation, north Mayo where I painter the landscape of the nearby glen. The above painting of the entrance into the sitka forest growing on the slope joined the Ballinglen Museum of Art Permanent Collection, and it is now on view to the public for the first time in the ‘Recent Acquisitions’ exhibition at the museum, curated by Founding Director Margo Dolan.
The exhibition opened on the 16th March and runs until the 30th May.
