It’s been a really tough year (breaking my leg an’ all) but the wierd thing is that it has been an incredibly tough for everyone. Thank you all for your support. It has really made a difference. I really appreciate the comments and “likes”, and even the people who read my posts and never leave a trace (except in my stats)!
THANK YOU!

I am delighted to have another of my painting adapted for a novel cover by an Irish writer. This time my painting “Cottage on Bunbeg Harbour” (2019) has been used for the Spanish translation of Donal Ryan’s “Strange Flowers” or rather “Flores Extrañas”. I have started reading the original and I am thoroughly enjoying it. […]
In my last post I decribed visiting the abandoned fishing village of An Port tucked away in a remote corner of the Donegal shoreline (read it here). We were inspired to seek out this very remote spot by American artist Rockwell Kent, who visited and painted the area in the 1920s. I was waiting for […]

Emma, When this all comes straight I think there is going to be a massive blossoming in the creative arts. People have been so deprived of visual stimulation, of just seeing different views that they are going to be very receptive of “Art” I have loved seeing all of your beautiful paintings during the year, they have been a delight to look at. Thank you.
Thank you, Jane! We have all been deprived of visual stimulation, I don’t know I have kept going but I have and there’s a way to go yet!!
Have a Happy and Healthy Christmas Emma. Best wishes for a peaceful NewYear!
I hope you have a relaxing and healthy Christmas, Emma. Thank you for your amazing paintings over the year. I have loved visiting Ireland through your work.
Thank you. I wish you and your husband good health. Thank you for your beautiful, colourful and textured work.
You’re welcome! Best wishes for better times to come!
Hopefully you’ll be fully mobile again soon, Emma. Thanks for the good wishes. I’ve enjoyed looking at your work this year, and I hope you had a good Christmas. 🙂 🙂
It’s one thing to break your leg but when the entire planet metaphorically does the same thing that’s when It’s time to circle the wagons!
Your leg is doing better as I’m sure the world will be next year Emma. You just keep painting these beautiful scenes while we have our leg up!
Thank you, Wayne!!!
did that wind storm hit you?
Yes – its was crazy windy in Wales. I cant imagine what it was like in Donegal!
I call that kind of weather “Poor canoeing weather”!
!!!
Your blog is so enjoyable to read and I truly love your artwork. We must hope for better things to come in 2021 – it’s all we can do. So I say, Happy New Year to you and your family.
