At the End Of Day

27″(68cm) x 19″(48cm) – measurements including the frame – oil on board

Absolutely obsessed with this painting by the incredible Dorothy Ledwith. We love to see the grittiness of urban power lines being included in paintings; there is such a beauty in the familiar – this is another beautiful, painting in oils on board.

Having been regularly chosen to exhibit at the RHA annual exhibition, as well as in galleries around Ireland, Dorothy’s work has a fabulously distinctive style.  Her gentle, muted colour palette lends itself to gorgeous, aged aesthetic – and she creates such carefully considered compositions. This artist’s technique and handling of oils is nothing short of exquisite and exudes such quiet confidence.

To say we are fans is an understatement.

Dorothy works in oils, print and gouache. The subject matter of her work includes urban-scapes, landscapes and still life. Her immediate urban surroundings of old chimney pots, gable ends and rows of power lines feature regularly in her work. In her landscape paintings she tries to reflect the splendid countryside of counties Clare, Galway and Limerick. Dorothy has developed very much her own style of painting and a palette of muted tones
