Poulnabrone dolmen is a 5,000 year old portal tomb in the limestone Burren area of County Clare, Ireland. The dolmen consists of a massive flat capstone supported on several upright pillars, and would originally have been covered by a mound of earth. Archeological excavations found several traces of human remains at the burial site, which now stands as a stark reminder of an ancient civilisation. Looking back through the mists of time, who knows what ancient religious rites took place at this barren and windswept scene?

Oil painting on canvas I painted this scene of an Irish village several years ago, adapted from an old photograph dating from probably the late 1800’s to early 1900’s. The man with the cart is probably a trader, the young woman looks on while the elderly folk take in the sun and watch the activity in the village. Interesting to see the various buildings, from poor thatched cottages to well built stone (shops?) and wealthy mansions. In Ireland today, many of these building would still exist. I live in an old cottage which once had a thatched roof and probably looked pretty much like the one in the painting. The slate roofs can still be seen in some places and the shops and stores still look very much the same… double glazed windows replace the old wooden frames and inside its very modern but walk through any old Irish village or town and you will see that the old buildings are still there. Driving through an old village is a nightmare… the road is narrow and will swerve because, as in this painting, a building could jut out into the road. Slow down world!! Bring back the donkey and cart, I say!!! :-)

This is obviously not an original idea, and I want to thank both ECGardner and Angelique Brunas for their works along these lines that motivated me to explore my own creativity. I hope they do not mind my using their work as a basis for my inspiration, and I am still working to achieve the balance, beauty, and artistry they have exhibited through their respective nature based collages! I will give folks a while to guess what the various panes are comprised of, they should be pretty easy to figure out, later I will insert the proper descriptions of their contents. As always I can not say often enough how wonderful the Redbubble community is and how happy I am to have found it during it’s infancy so that I may grow along with it into a more complete and accomplished artist! / / / / Portfolio Areas / / Tigers / Wildlife / Macro / Landscape / Birds / Abstracts / Cats~wild and domestic

Oil painting on canvas (sold). “Irish Cottage” shows life in Ireland many, many years ago. I saw an old photograph of this cottage and adapted the scene as I imagined it. The woman sits outside, catching a few rays of sunshine while her husband, most likely a fisherman takes a break. A small pile of peat is stacked against the wall and the thatched roof is in need of repair. Imagination is such a wonderful tool for an artist! Our little Irish cottage in the lovely county Clare must have looked like this one! Wildlife, landscapes and Irish life paintings by Avril Brand

This creation has been inspired by the Traditional Irish Song : Skibbereen. I focused here on the old and happy times while they where living in Skibbereen, in Dear Ireland. / It’s like an instant shot of the father’s memory, when he was happy, he remembers the good days when his wife was alive. / We all have photographies of people we love. That’s what i wanted to show here, a positive touch while the song is so sad! NEW – 2008 Calendar is available HERE My gallery is Copyright © Wandering Soul.

This little bough of purple flowers seemed to go nicely with an old Irish Blessing, a favorite prayer of mine for a long time now.

Acrylic painting (20×26 inches) adapted from an old photograph of an old Irish lady at her spinning wheel.(sold) Many old Irish photographs depict the art of spinning. The women would sit outside the door of their little cottages (weather permitting) and spin away. This is one of my favourite Irish paintings. Only when it was finished did I realise that my Spinning Lady resembles my grandmother!!! Wildlife, landscapes and Irish life paintings by Avril Brand Clare Art Blog

Oils on canvas (sold). After visiting Doolin, I tried to remember the cliffs Cliffs of Moher in County clare) and painted this scene from my memory. Strong sunset, I know. This painting was done soon after we moved to Clare from Dublin and I think the memories of African sunsets were still strong in my mind. Nevertheless, I soon learned that these sunsets are not so unusual albeit more tinged with lilacs and purples. Wildlife, landscapes and Irish life paintings by Avril Brand Clare Art Blog

One of the beauty spots of Ireland and a must for any visitor. I enjoyed painting the Abbey and spent many happy hours with a tiny brush on windows on turrets. The original is oils on canvas 20×26 inches Originally called Kylemore Castle, it was built between 1863 and 1868 as a private home for the family of Mitchell Henry, a wealthy politician from Manchester, England who was also MP for Galway County from 1871 to 1885. After the death of his wife Margaret in 1875, Mitchell did not spend much time there. He and his wife are both buried in the small mausoleum near the church in the grounds of the abbey. Notable features of the abbey are the neo-Gothic church (built between 1877 and 1881), a miniature replica of Norwich Cathedral, made from local green Connemara marble, and the Victorian walled garden. The abbey houses a secondary girls’ boarding school, Kylemore Abbey International Girls’ School. The house and gardens are open to the public. The nuns have decided to close the school in 2010, although they do not plan to sell the property and will continue to reside there. The name Kylemore originates from the Irish words Coill Mór – meaning Great Wood. Wildlife, landscapes and Irish life paintings by Avril Brand Clare Art Blog

This painting of a stone bridge was a lot fun to do. There are so many old bridges in Ireland so this bridge became symbolic of all the lovely old bridges I have seen. So, somewhere in Ireland, I imagine, there is a stone bridge that looks like this one.
