Born 1962, Dublin – working and living in that city.
I discovered Mairead’s work in the Vitamin P3 book, another gorgeous find. I was taken with the muted contemporary palettes she uses in her paintings and the chiselled brushwork (for example, on a painting like Sunset Please – below). Her work is luminous and some elements in her pictures take on the appearance of glass (the Decorated Tree, for example). What is going on in the painting below? It seems to play with and break all rules of perspective – the ‘clouds’ could be part of a mural, or brightness coming into the day. What is the round white shape in the left middle ground? Is it snow? Glass?
Here is a selection of some of her paintings, images were taken from her website from 2011 to present (however, her website features work from 2008).
