About the Item

Carrowteige II Mixed Media on Board 54.5 x 76 cm 21 1/2 x 29 7/8 in "I want to celebrate the subtlety and nuance, the sense of timelessness, strength and fragility, and to convey this through intuitive abstraction, memory, emotion, mark making, and movement of paint." - Grainne Dowling Grainne Dowling attended the Crawford College of Art and Design in Cork, gaining a BA Hons in fine art and painting. Originally from North Mayo, she now works from her studio on the edge of the Curragh Plains in County Kildare. She has exhibited widely in Ireland, including at the Royal Hibernian Academy in Dublin, and the Royal Ulster Academy in Belfast. Her work is held in private collections worldwide. ------- 'My subject matter is landscape, in particular the rugged landscape of North Mayo, Sligo, the Curragh Co. Kildare and the gardens and natural forms around me. I want to celebrate the subtlety and nuance, the sense of timelessness, strength and fragility and to convey this through intuitive abstraction, memory, emotion, mark making and movement of paint. Using the recognised language of landscape such as horizon lines and boundaries, the paint is scraped back, reworked, layered, all the while being mindful of the tones, shapes and edges created. These elements speak to me of waves, clouds, rocks, light, shadow, colour and form. ​My aim is to distill images, memories, and emotions, leaving just enough room for subjective interpretation." - Grainne Dowling

"Ocean Waves #09" Mixed Media Painting
Located in Denver, CO
Ana Hefco's (US based) "Ocean Waves #09" is an original, hand made mixed media painting that depicts an abstracted color field of blue, teal and beige, that is reminiscent of an aerial/satellite image of a coastal beach where the waves crash on shore. Artist Bio and Statement: Born and raised in Bucharest Romania, I am a self-taught dreamer and artist. To dream is my path and to paint is my dream. Lack of control is not my strong suit, but in the painting process things are different. The resin (also known as liquid glass) has a mind of its own and I learn to mindfully let go every time I paint. I allow those liquid color induced emotions I feel to drive me and take lead of my hands and at the end of the process, it’s just music and bliss. My inspiration is always nature's force, balance, perfection in purpose and beauty. It can be a place I travelled or sailed to or just a feeling floating on our boat docked in a Turkish marina or just on anchor nearby a Greek taverna on a remote tiny island in the Mediterranean or Aegean Sea. It can be this artist as a little girl reading...
