Letters from the Landscape
What strikes me about this particular image is the raw force of the water against the base of the rock. White spray climbs halfway up the cliff face, and the sea around the island is a churning mess of foam and dark water. Gannets circle above in their thousands, though in these conditions they're barely visible against the grey.
This is one of the most remarkable seabird colonies in the North Atlantic. Around 30,000 gannet pairs nest on those vertical walls of rock every year. The scale of it is difficult to convey until you see the birds against the cliffs!
Small Skellig's larger neighbour has quite a story too. Read more in my complete guide to Skellig Michael.

Yes. A framed size is the whole frame, edge to edge: 3 inches bigger each way than the print inside it. An unframed size is the sheet of paper, including the white border where I sign and title each print by hand. Canvas and Floating Panel sizes are the face of the piece.

Small skellig
Had the chance to visit in Killarney before the move. Great space, great people, great art. Piece was shipped and delivered without incident.
Wonderful picture, perfect service
This piece is stunning! My husband and I vacationed to Ireland in July of 2018 and passed this exact piece hanging in the gallery window in Killarney and fell in love. We just built a home and felt this artwork needed to be a part of it.
