Description

Red Cottage ~ Padraig Mc Caul.

Red Cottage by Padraig McCaul captures the essence of old Irish cottages seen all over Ireland. This simple composition allows the sky and warm foreground to fill the landscape. The balance between these two elements is what gives the card a pleasing sense of aesthetic. The sky is full of the light of the West of Ireland, a true homage to Achill Island.

Padraig McCaul’s takes inspiration from the natural landscapes and coastline of Ireland’s Wild Atlantic Way. Achill Island has had a profound influence on his paintings. His paintings are full of the natural beauty and colour of the surrounding landscape.

In his paintings Padraig uses primary colours, blues and reds and crimsons. In broad strokes he depicts houses, roads, farm buildings and country lanes in simple, uncluttered compositions. His paintings seek to elicit the emotion that allows room for the viewer to get lost in the subject. In conclusion, Red Cottage does not simply describe the landscape but stirs an emotional response to the feeling of the landscape.
