The Cliffs of Moher may be one of the first things to come to my mind when thinking about the typical Irish landscape. And probably one thinks about the color green, too. When I arrived for a short trip to Ireland, I had, in fact, the feeling that the whole landscape is created from an unbelievable richness of variations in green.

I would love to see Ireland, my sister has returned but not me or dad yet, he left when he was 8 :( I really like this one, the autumn colours with the life of green across the bay that has a hint of autumn itself...I love your style. I would love to be able to capture movement and feeling with expressive line, but I get bogged down in my need to make it just right and end up getting nowhere *facepalm* thank you for sharing Ireland with us so beautifully ^-^
Even in heavy rain, the land is glowing in 50 shades of green— what a gem! It was my 1st visit to Ireland but probably not my last because this beautiful country has deeply inspired me and there is nothing better to dream about than going back there with an easel and paints. Just after coming back home, I started to bring my impressions on paper—with watercolors in a sketchbook and some larger sheets. During the trip, there was not much time to spend time painting. In most cases, there was hardly enough time to put down some notes and scribbles with the ball-pen.
The Irish landscape as a motive was a real challenge for me. Because of the often barren beauty of the land, there is not much room to whitewash weak points in the pictorial design. So the painting engagement with Ireland became also a quest for stylistic devices. In simplification and abstraction, I had the feeling to draw nearer to the beauty of Ireland. It would make me rather happy if I could give viewers of these watercolors an understanding of my fascination with Ireland. Now I collected the best paintings in a book that I publish myself.
You have a true mastery of colour! I really love your style.
I wish I could step through this painting and sit by the riverside, taking in the stunning view. What part of Ireland is this?
Ireland is such a beautiful country and you did a wonderful job of capturing it's beauty.
The exuberance and freedom, yet exact control of your technique is the perfect way to convey the beautiful landscape, color and architecture there. It magnifies my wish to travel there, and a private dream to live in a period cottage. Thankyou for every one of these gems! -Robyn
Thank you so much, Robyn! I would rather like to live in a period cottage and paint all day. ! :-)
I have Irish ancestors but I have never been there but this is amazing great work
Thank you so much, True Blue. You should go there and see True Green! :-)
I'm lucky enough to live and have been born and raised here, There is a vast amount of landscapes and I find that usually you can find all sorts of plants, just left to grow happily, I love my country.
I want to see Ireland.
I recommend it. I have seen many places but Ireland really touched me with her pure beauty. :-)
These paintings are beautiful. I've never been to Ireland because I fear I will fall in love with it, and will never want to leave. These paintings give me that feeling as well.
Thank you so much, Tabitha! :-)
Load More Replies...Gorgeous artwork- you really transported my to the Irish countryside. There is definitely a magic about Ireland. I love your artistic style and the colours you use.
That was lovely, different places and skies you could almost feel the air. I really really like your work! Thank you for sharing these
Carsten, fabulous work! Your paintings capture a wildness and ruggedness that photographs sometimes fail to translate. Any chance of you drop a location under each painting?
