Description
Bangor Pier is a unique original painting by Kathryn Callaghan which takes in the view of the historic Eisenhower Pier as it stretches out into Belfast Lough. Bangor is Northern Ireland’s most recently-named city, receiving the title in 2022, and has become even more popular as a charming day trip spot ever since! The charming red navigation light at the pier’s head stands proud in this piece, glinting above a broad blue sea, while charming seaside houses perch atop the green land in the distance.
Completed in a classic, locally-built black frame with a white wooden inner mount, Bangor Pier will fit perfectly with any tastes.
What makes an original Bangor, Northern Ireland painting by Kathryn unique?
Kathryn uses a unique pouring technique to create her paintings, which creates a contact-free approach to making her artwork. Black ink is mixed with gel to create a new material which offers a new and unusual finish. The mix is poured from mid-air from an open neck bottle – much like pouring honey onto toast or olive oil onto bread. The finish is a textured, glossy image set against a smooth white board.
With no sketch underneath the painting, this freeform technique allows Kathryn to create truly original, organic pieces that are full of life and energy. The result is captivating and often evocative of how we feel about the subject in our minds. It is this ‘feeling’ that Kathryn strives to achieve through her work that gives it such resonance with collectors far and wide.
