Down by the sea
Down by the sea
The inspiration for this piece is rooted in the rugged beauty of Port in Donegal, one of the most remote areas close to the Atlantic Ocean. The landscape, defined by its proximity to the vast and untamed ocean, sets the stage for a collection of unusual and smooth white pebbles.
Port, with its unique character and atmosphere, becomes a muse for capturing the essence of these extraordinary pebbles. The remoteness of the location adds a sense of authenticity and raw beauty to the composition, reflecting the wild spirit of the Atlantic coast.
The choice to focus on these white, smooth pebbles suggests a reverence for the simple yet remarkable elements that nature molds over time. Through this painting, the viewer is invited to experience the tactile and visual allure of Port's coastline, where every pebble is a testament to the enduring forces of the Atlantic.
