Pastoral - available from gallery

Pastoral is a large painting of cattle on the farm here on a hazy summers evening. This is probably one of the largest paintings I have produced and took several weeks to complete in the studio. Fortunately the cows often graze in the field alongside my studio so I was able to refer back to them when I needed to. The key to this painting was the interesting light and the composition of the cattle. It very much reminds me of bringing the cows in for milking, giving it a sense of nostalgia.

The original painting is available from The Art Collective at Gra Coffee Bar Nass, Co. Kildare contact Susan MacMillan 0872611540

Reverie - available contact gallery

Reverie is a oil painting done after a trip over to Heir Island in April. It was a fine day and we walked the length of the island passing this scene as we went. The large cow was on her own in the field with what seemed a slightly unusual backdrop of a seascape. The colours of the landscape had not yet changed from their winter hues making for an interesting scene of quiet and solitude in landscape surrounded by water

Barn Girls i (SOLD)

I painted dairy cows over the winter of 2018/19. They were rather conveniently over wintering on my uncle's farm where my studio is located. This meant I could easily return several times to the scene as I painted it. This is the first one I painted in January in a cool winter light. Barn girls is framed in a dark, solid ash frame.
