Thrilled to be able to share that this little painting has found a new home, it's going to USA. Not to worry, there will be prints available. Want to see what other lovely Irish coastline scenes I've made? Check out www.orlaclancycontemporaryart.com. #art #Irishart #buydirectfromtheartist #kerry

Three more from the Brooklyn Art Library Sketchbook Project. The theme was My Street so I basically showed what it's like where I live in #countylimerick #Ireland. If you like sketches, you might like to #subscribe to my website: www.orlaclancycontemporaryart.com

You know that when you buy an unframed artwork, you can customise it, right? Here's how that works: https://f.mtr.cool/hcissbplbp #art #worksonpaper #unframedart #buyIrishart #yourcustomization #orlaclancycontemporaryart

I've made a lot of #nude #drawings as part of my study of anatomy, but not many #paintings - this is one. If you like #figurestudies generally, check out my page on Saatchi Gallery Online: https://www.saatchiart.com/en-ie/orlaclancypatijn

The islet that's in the middle of Banna Strand where the Lough Akeragh outlet is located. The tide was just in, and the islet cut off for several hours. Sold through Draíocht Gallery in Adare, by the late Agnes, a legend in her own lifetime. #art #wildatlanticway #orlaclancycontemporaryart

I love #sketchbooks, I have several - unfortunately not this one, which went to the Brooklyn Art Library. But I recorded all of the pages before I sent it! This little #paintings in here are #watercolour. Visit my website and subscribe! https://f.mtr.cool/mdmnesefbe #art #Irishart

#enpleinairdrawing from the Burren National Park. Believe it or not, this spot is just 5 minutes away from the #FatherTedHouse! Just another reason to love the #Burren. #irishart #art

Photos of two of my originals in frames. Aren't they lovely? I love crisp white frames, they really make the colours pop. How do you think they'd look on YOUR wall? Follow the link to see more.  https://www.orlaclancycontemporaryart.com/paintings-of-people

Two of my still lifes that are gone. From when I was getting back into using pastels for en plein air again, around 2015. Then when I was finished drawing them, I could chop them up and cook them for dinner! So should I open another shop on my website www.orlaclanccontemporaryart.com for still life?
