This is an exquisite piece by Maahs.  The artist, with her strong, evident brush strokes and heavy use of oils, is clearly not aiming for a hyper realistic feel by any means, and yet, nonetheless, her masterful use of colour and composition means that the end result is one of technical excellence – because you feel as though you are glancing out a window at an extremely familiar sight; certainly one that is very familiar to us in West Clare. The distant sunlight hitting the various sections of fields in the distance; the light and dark of the boggy ground; the coolness of the day and the warmth of familiarity all rolled into one.

This artist is fabulously proficient and would be in the ‘one to watch’ category for us.
