" Irish country life holds a particular fascination for me. As the son of Irish immigrants, I was raised on stories of life on the rural Irish coast. This collection of paintings is inspired by stories my mother told me of her younger years, visits to my relatives' farms, and old photographs of life near the turn of the 20th century. I hope you enjoy taking this walk through the Irish countryside and feel the passion I have for the land and its people, and for the art of painting."
