The Water Pump, Farrihy, Doonbeg Road, Co. Clare, (2020)

18.5″ (47cm) x 14.5″ (37cm) – Framed

Ruth Wood is one of Clare’s most established and celebrated artists. Perhaps best known for her striking pen & ink and watercolour paintings of buildings and landscapes, she is also much sought after for her original acrylics on canvas (always super exciting when we get some in).  This gorgeous piece, The Water Pump, Farrihy, is part of a new series of 2020 artworks by this exciting artist.

Ruth says of this painting, …”the triad of a single cow, an old bath and a water pump shed creates the heart of this painting. The diagonal lines of the fields connect the foreground to the cottages in the background. This painting is a celebration of winter light in west Clare”.
