“Wellington Quay East”
Canvas  40.6 cm x 30.5 cm (16 in x 12 in)

SOLD (Prints available soon)

Most people when they think of Dublin’s Wellington Quay think of the western end of the quay and the Clarence Hotel,the Workman’s, the Bison Bar, and other rather famous buildings. When I say most people, I mean me – most people don’t actually think of Wellington Quay. Anyway, if you’ve followed my paintings for the last 20 years you’ll know I love Dublin’s quays and have painted almost all of them, some several times (but not the docklands yet although – shush – I’m working on that).

The River Liffey in town is usually a thick green brown soup, and it used to smell exactly like that when I was younger. But nowadays it’s cleaner and sometimes the sun shines and the river stills and doesn’t it only go and give you a very good reflection – which actually is a lot more work to paint than if it just did the bouncing brown green soup thing. Still, this is it. If you’re wondering where exactly it is, the Ha’penny bridge is one-metre off-picture to the left, and the Millennium Bridge is off picture to the right.

This painting is SOLD.
