Artist Comments
In the summer of 2000, a friend of mine made several business trips to Ireland. After he completed his work for the day, he would venture out into the nearby countryside and local communities to see the sites and take photos of his trip. This landscape painting is from a photo of one of the places he visited while there. It depicts Bunratty, a small folk village in southwest Ireland not far from Shannon and Limerick. The town gets its name from nearby Bunratty Castle, a prominent 15th-century tower house in County Clare, Ireland. The castle is a major tourist attraction famous for its medieval banquets. Bunratty Castle overlooks the Raite river, and the village lies just to the west of the castle. The castle and village are open to the public and feature around 30 buildings.
