Swallow- Original Oil Painting

Bathed in warm golden light, this small painting captures a swallow in mid-flight as it rises effortlessly upwards. Its form is gently deconstructed, with fragments of paint dissolving into the background, suggesting movement rather than defining every detail. The result is a painting that feels alive, balancing precision with freedom. Part of my Croí na Coille collection, the swallow represents hope, renewal and the changing seasons that shape the Irish landscape. A familiar sight returning to Ireland each spring, it reminds us of home, migration and the enduring rhythms of nature. The vibrant yellow backdrop evokes warmth and light, celebrating the optimism carried on the wings of one of Ireland's most cherished birds. 29 cm by 33 cm in white wooden tray frame.
