Mary Clare Nolan lives in Carlow but spends much of her time painting the West Coast of Ireland. Her work is profoundly influenced by the Irish Atlantic coastline, a subject that has intrigued her for many years.
Mary Clare’s seascapes capture the power and ever-changing mood of the Atlantic Ocean and the rugged west coast. Exploring with texture and colour, she creates a sense of atmosphere by using oil paints to convey the energy of the sea.
