Summer Newsletter

While many of you are baking in England and dealing with a hosepipe ban, in Donegal it’s cloudy with occasional showers. I thought I would share you my recent newletter. They have ended up being quarterly. It depends of how much news I have and how busy I have been. I always make it strong […]

“The Quiet Girl” – my painting, the book and the film

“The Quiet Girl” – my painting, the book and the film

I am also feeling faintly stupid but very delighted  because I only just realised that Claire Keegan’s novella “Foster”, which my painting “The Traditional House, Gola”  has been used for the cover of a reprint,  is the basis for the film “The Quiet Girl”.  Actually, I nearly fell over when I made the connection.  

Back in Donegal

One of the many great things about being back in West Donegal is that I can paint much larger paintings as my art studio is much bigger here than in Derry. So I now have two on the go!

My Gravatar Profile Emma Cownie

Emma Cownie

Born in Hereford, educated in Cardiff and London, I am a professional contemporary artist who lives in Derry City and Donegal, Ireland. My work explores how light can focus attention on fleeting moments. By documenting the shadows cast in bright sunshine or by night time street lamps, I seek to catch a moment. As I am interested in painting people and places, intimacy and communities, streets and buildings. I have found myself drawn to and influenced by painters who have a special relationship with colour and light; such as American realists Edward Hopper and Rockwell Kent and British painter David Hockney. I am also drawn to the skies and landscapes of Irish artists such as Paul Henry, and James Hubert Craig.
