Cliodhna’s Wave

€220.00

Original Painting

Medium: Acrylic on stretched canvas.
Size: 24" x 20"

Based on a smaller coloured pencil drawing, this tells the story of the mythological Goddess Clodhna and how her love of a human, Ciabhán, led to her drowning off the west coast of Ireland.
Her name is still remembered in Glandore in West Cork, where a powerful wave that smashes against the rocks, is know as Cliodhna’s wave.

Art to me, is storytelling a means to visually capture the atmosphere and tell the tales behind our landscape or capture the essence of that person’s character.
