New Floral Study in Progress 🌸🖊️ I’ve ju New Floral Study in Progress 🌸🖊️
I’ve just begun a new series—studying how to paint a bouquet of lilies.🌿 Started with a pencil study to explore the structure…
🌸 Then moved on to a focused painting study of a single lily—to really understand its form, light, and delicacy.
💐 Next up: the full bouquet composition!It’s all part of my process before I create a final piece for sale.
If you love floral artwork or are looking for original botanical pieces, keep watching this space. 🌼✨DM if you’re interested in pre-order or getting early access to the finished work. 💌#FloralArt #LilyPainting #ArtCollector #PaintingInProgress #OriginalArtForSale #BotanicalArt #ArtStudy #WorkInProgress #FlowerPainting #StudioPractice #FloralStudy #ArtistAtWork #BuyOriginalArt #CollectorsOfInstagram #ArtDaily #FineArtPainting #StillLifeArt #Lilies #ArtOfTheDay #FlowerBouquet #ArtStudioVibes #PleinAirPainting #SupportLivingArtists #ContemporaryArt #RealismArt

Day 3 of painting the same floral composition… a Day 3 of painting the same floral composition… and still no thumbs up from my teacher 😅💐
I’m trying to stay patient and learn, but honestly starting to wonder — is there any progress in how I’m painting flowers, or am I just not cut out for it?Be honest (but kind 😅) — can you see improvement? Or should I stick to landscapes? 👀🎨#artjourney #floralpainting #paintingpractice #artistinprogress #learningtopaint #stilllife #flowersinart #artfeedback #strugglingartist #honestart

What a wild plein air day by Dublin’s Halfpenny What a wild plein air day by Dublin’s Halfpenny Bridge! 🎨☀️ Got lost in the Liffey’s glow for 2 hours, playing with bold new techniques. Then, a heavy rain hit, and while packing under my umbrella, a bee hiding on my coat stung my jaw! 😅 Swelling today, but I’m still buzzing (pun intended) about how the painting turned out! 🖌️ Check the timelapse: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DNsz4eJ2A-S/?igsh=eGFyNnhnNHg3amNy.

Last night’s sketch – made while watching the Last night’s sketch – made while watching the Trump–Zelenskyi meeting.
A moment full of tension, symbolism, and possibly surrealism.
My head was jelly — confusion, overstimulation, emotional disarray. That often leaks into a drawing, consciously or not.
Sketching became automatic, uncensored — surrealism uncouches itself this way.
Not sure what I drew exactly. Maybe you’ll see more than I did.

Soft light over Dublin Bay, Poolbeg chimneys glowi Soft light over Dublin Bay, Poolbeg chimneys glowing, the red Poolbeg Lighthouse watching over calm waters. Boats rest quietly, their reflections shimmering like glass.

Day 6 – Art in the Open Spent the day at Hunting Day 6 – Art in the Open
Spent the day at Huntington Castle in Clonegal — a small castle full of charm and beautiful detail.
It took me most of the day to paint just one piece, and I’m proud of it.
There were pheasants everywhere — even one perched in stone on top of a tower!
The grounds were open just for artists — such a peaceful and inspiring place to work.🖼️ “Pheasant Watch – Huntington Castle”

War Pigs Still Marching: For Ozzy, For Ukraine My War Pigs Still Marching: For Ozzy, For Ukraine  My own Guernica – Bucha Massacre
🕯 In Memory of Ozzy Osbourne (1948–2025)
🎶 Soundtrack: War Pigs – Black SabbathAs Ukraine still bleeds, the voice of truth echoes louder than ever. Ozzy sang of war pigs long ago — but his words speak directly to today’s reality. His voice cuts through time and silence, calling out the evil of senseless wars.This timelapse shows my painting Guernica – Bucha Massacre — a tribute to the innocent lives lost, and a cry against the Russian war machine.Rest in power, Ozzy.
