Next weekend local artist Róisín O'Farrell will be packing up her paintings and making the trip from Wicklow to Kerry for her first major solo exhibition.
The show entitled 'Beginnings' will open on Valencia Island Co. Kerry on June 20th for one week before being shipped by ferry to the mainland to the Killarney Art Gallery in Killarney where it will open June 27th for a further week.
Róisín’s show entitled 'Beginnings' offers a selection of bright vibrant paintings, fresh contemporary still lifes and colourful interiors. They are the kind of paintings that stop, both the arty and the ordinary person alike, in their tracks.
A native of Bray, Róisín was in her own words 'steeped in art' from an early age, coming as she does from a family of talented and successful artists. She is also a daily painter, a growing international movement of artists who paint every day and blog their work.
Róisín paints in oil, using a strong palette and mainly synthetic brushes with a bright finish that give her work its distinctly vibrant brushwork. Her style is both contemporary and painterly. She posts her daily paintings on her blog at www.roisinofarrell.com which has built up a substantial following and her larger work is exhibited at the Killarney Art Gallery in Co. Kerry.
