This is an Acrylic painting of the Burren, County Clare, Ireland. The original hangs above my fireplace at home and is not for sale. I find that looking at this scene helps me relax and is therapeutic. Prints of this painting would suit any room that is a sanctuary or restful.

I absorbed the basics of life and painting from my father, James Cassidy. In the late 1970's I spent five years working in a Graphic Design studio in Dublin City. The influence of that discipline can be seen in some of my paintings. I enjoy experimenting with various painting styles and mediums also photography and lately, digital art.

Nora thank you for your comment. It means a lot and is very insightful! I painted it at a time when I needed to see the light. It got me through many a dark time and is the one original painting I won’t sell.

I really enjoy this piece. There is some quality in it that reminds me of "The Scream" by Edward Munch, and that as we know is a timeless classic. Very powerful piece emotionally.
Martine Murphy replied:
Blake, I am chuffed at your reference to "The Scream". There are times that getting lost in this painting has preserved my sanity! Thank you so much for your kind and perceptive comment :)

When darkness threatens, I would find the light pouring on these stones as a reminder of the gentle protection provided each of us in times of despair. I love this I can see you enjoyed your time in Ireland. : ) Hello from the California desert. F/L
Martine Murphy replied:
Hi Maria, so true. Thank you for your kind comment. I live on the east side of Ireland, Meath but have a soft spot for the Burren area of County Clare. There are days when the rain seems to be a constant feature that I'd trade a day in the California desert area :)
