Clare Arts Office in conjunction with Cultúrlann Sweeney Library Gallery is delighted to present ‘A Brush with Nature” an art exhibition by Helen Martin.

Helen Martin is a visual artist based in Co. Clare. After graduating from LCAD she taught art for 35 years in the Irish Education System.

Upon retiring in 2011, Helen concentrated on her love of painting. Oil on canvas is her preferred medium and her representational pieces depict her love of nature and her natural surroundings. This is evident in the vibrancy portrayed in her paintings of landscape, sea, flora and fauna. Helen’s use of brush and pallet knife encourages the viewer to be tactile with her pieces. Helen has had several exhibitions in her native county.

She has also exhibited with Artists Eye on Galway. She has been published in Irish magazines and her work has been sold locally nationally and internationally. Most recently Helen has had a solo exhibition at the Hunt Museum Café in Limerick City.
