Family Tree

Artwork by Pauline Murphy

I found this image of my A Level Art piece, its my 'Family Tree' :) Thought it was a nice piece of art, it was done using coloured pencil and the background was done using gold leaf. It took me a really long time, but it turned out to be one of my favourite pieces.

Arthur Guinness Day and Dublin Fashion Week

Artwork by Pauline Murphy

Next Month I will be showing two pieces in the Balla Ban Art Gallery. There will be one for Arthur Guinness Day and another sex and the city painting for Dublin fashion week. The original Sex and the city painting proved probably the most popular in the Green Gallery. If you think you might be interested in another one of these paintings, watch this blog and see the new painting's progress.

It will be available in the Balla Ban Art Gallery for Dublin Fashion week, a specially commisioned one of a kind sex and the city painting.

Sex and the City Painting

I've completed this painting of the girls from sex and the city. Its my first time using skin tones and acrylic paints, I'm really pleased with the result considering its my first time. I think in future I will experiment more with paint, the only thing is that this took me the longest out of anything I've completed before, well over 20+ hours. The end result was very pleasing and I'm happy with it.
