Irish landscapes art print At Dusk Light

The Product: Irish landscapes art print At Dusk Light

Much of Emma Tweedie’s Irish landscapes art focuses on the ‘moodiness’ of her native homeland, Northern Ireland. She is particularly fond of the rich, deep palette of nuanced colours that the landscape offers up. ‘At Dusk Light was painted on a blustery day,’ says the artist Emma ‘so it was a somewhat challenging scene to paint, as the light was constantly shifting and changing. I’ve tried to capture the multi-layered colours of the landscape including the lush green fields and the lough that lies at the foot of the hills.’

The Lowdown

Emerging artist Emma Tweedie works between rural Northern Ireland, where she grew up and her south-west London studio. Emma creates semi-autobiographical and abstracted works that channel her responses to nature and its calming effects. The finished results feel contemporary and dynamic but firmly rooted in and inspired by the natural landscapes, seascapes and townscapes of her native homeland. Her colour palettes also reflect those she finds in nature such as lichen green, moody blues and turf browns.

Many of Emma’s original works are created from mixed media with a sustainable focus. Emma prioritises water-based and non-toxic ingredients. She is also interested in textiles and is a keen ‘up-cycler’. Hence, she tries to use secondhand materials wherever possible in her paintings and collages. These might include old newspaper, packaging materials, vintage fabrics such as Irish linen and even used coffee cups. She is also inventive with her ‘artist’s toolkit’, employing an eclectic variety of materials and techniques to achieve the desired result. Such items as pine cones, bracken, sticks, homemade brushes, textiles and clay paint number amongst the materials she has used to bring her original artworks to life.

Styling Ideas?

This Irish landscapes art print is sold unframed. We’d suggest a slim, bespoke, box frame with a wide, white card mount to allow the print to take centre stage. Ensure the print stands out further by teaming white walls with a white frame, perhaps with subtly visible wood grain for texture, so the frame and surround effectively ‘disappear’. Alternatively, a pale wooden frame would compliment the warmer ochre tones in the print. Framed prints, especially those with a generous white mount, will always ‘leap out’ from darker backdrops to greater dramatic effect.
