Description
Causeway Rocks is a unique original painting by Kathryn Callaghan. The ancient Giant’s Causeway, spanning a section of Northern Ireland’s North Coast, is famously one of the most magnificent and accessible examples of basalt columns in the world, with visitors travelling from around the world to climb the volcanic rocks. Kathryn has captured this beautiful landscape in tantalising oranges and purples against a vibrant blue sea, with tall green hills stretching high above.
Completed in a classic, locally-built black frame with a white wooden inner mount, Causeway Rocks will fit perfectly with any tastes.
What makes an original Giant’s Causeway 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.
