About artwork: Aisling Drennan is a contemporary abstract painter whose current work is influenced by rock landscapes including the Burren in Co. Clare and the Skellig Islands in Co. Kerry. Studies of rock landscapes are abstracted and etched into layers of paintwork- constructed, deconstructed, scratched, rubbed and finally reapplied to form a new paint skin and begin the process over; a method of finding and losing the painting until visually robust. Please note that the artist, Aisling Drennan, is based in the United Kingdom. For buyers in the EU, customs charges will apply.
