"Lahinch Beach, County Clare, Ireland"by Avril Brand
Oil painting on canvas of Lahinch Beach, a popular resort in County Clare, Ireland. It shows a lobster pot and the lovely stretch of beach with the town far away in the distance. Photographic reference kindly permitted by a very talented photographer, Steven of Mountshannon on sxu.
Thank you barnsis and A90six. But credit really goes to the photographer, Steven. I just did as all artists do (or should do).. put in things from my own imagination. The original photo is http://www.sxc.hu/browse.phtml?f=search&txt...
