Carrickfergus (Paintings of Ireland)

Our Black Irish Band recorded this old irish ballad many moons ago on the "Under the Far Western Skies" Cd, which is out of print. I thought it went well with my many oil paintings I did while living in Ireland. The paintings that are shown here only are only about 60% of the art that i did when living in ireland. Most of the paintings I sold or gave away to friends and I never took pictures of them. Some were done on location and others were done indoors on very rainny days. As you can tell, I had to do a few train paintings while in Ireland.

The last photo was taken the very last day I was in Ireland. Some of my friends in Westport put together an old fashion "going away wake", for me. I am seated next to Mr. Callaghan, I worked his cattle farm for a few days in Westport Ireland.
