Donegal Artist | Sinéad Smyth

Sinéad is an emerging artist from Donegal, Ireland. Her paintings explore landscape as a place of memory, connection and nurturing influence on being human.

My work explores sensory relationships with landscape as a place of memory, as a defining aspect of being human.  I am interested in how this relationship can be maternal and nurturing, and have meaning in personal anthropology.

My oil paintings have evolved towards semi-representational, often abstract, land and seascape paintings.  I work both en plein air and in my studio, using traditional and experimental processes in oil, charcoal and mixed media on paper and canvas.

An emerging Irish artist

Sinéad Smyth is an Irish artist with a passion for people and the geography of Inishowen, Donegal.

Her painting comes from a love of observation, which is followed in many cases by painting from memory or photographic record. She creates vibrant, energetic atmospheres and emotions.

Sinéad Smyth

Figurative works are inspired by my love of people-watching - their actions, facial expressions, and my imagination.
