One of my new paintings entitled 'Glendalough' will be on show at the Beaufield Mews 'New Beginnings' Exhibition from May the 24th.
I am a frequent walker in Glendalough and have passed this spot many times over the years, thinking to myself that these stone jetties would make a great subject to paint.
Although they are no longer in use as working jetties they are still strong and beautiful structures that have stood up against the inclement Irish weather and the test of time.
Years ago the lake was busy with small boat excursions, and visitors were able to travel to the opposite shore to get a closer look at St. Kevin's Bed.
St. Kevin is an Irish saint, known as the founder and first abbot of Glendalough and St. Kevin's bed is a small man made cave where legend has it Kevin made his home.
