VIEW IN MY ROOM
United Kingdom
Painting, Acrylic on Canvas
Size: 16 W x 16 H x 2 D in
To me the West of Ireland isn’t so much about views as quests. Quests for ancient monuments, obscure bits of hazel scrub, fine little bars, dolmens that have disappeared, old churches… this painting references the low rolling hills just to the North of Ballinalacken Castle near Doolin and the famous Green Road that heads into the Burren. To the west is the strange valley of Oughtdarra and the bizarre Silbury Hill-like fort of the Tuatha Dé Danann.

I am what is generally known as a new wave pop folk artist. Usually I work by sitting at a desk with my head in my hands staring at the wall for several weeks, before jumping up and doing a painting in a few minutes. After which I kiss it lovingly - though only when it's dry. My technique is based around putting down various colour layers - with hands, brushes, knives, bits of rag or old gloves - adding new colour quickly and then scratching away wet paint to show the layer below. This is in part an attempt to reveal the perceived mask/veneer of subjects, be they lanscapes, people or memories. It also works on a more sensual level, allowing me to attack my own paintings and crack them open a little bit. Although I'm now older than John Lennon was when he died, and Dino Zoff was when he collected a World Cup winner's medal, I like to think of myself as an emerging artist. I'm just emerging in slow motion.
