TWO DAYS LATE BUT THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU HAVE A GAMMY LAPTOP THAT TAKES THREE DAYS TO WAKE UP, I'VE UPDATED MY WEBSITE NOW THOUGH!! THIS PAINTING IS CALLED "BIRDS AND BUSHES" h80x60cm ACRYLIC AND OIL ON CANVAS 2020. ONE OF 22 PAINTINGS FROM MY SOLO SHOW "A SHARED SPACE" IN THE BALLINA ARTS CENTRE RUNS UNTIL APRIL 25TH

​
Artist Fiona Cawley’s Solo Show 'A Shared Space' presents a series of paintings exploring themes such as human and animal relationships, their coexistence and the impact of the man-made on the environment. Through the intertwining of expressive painting and dramatic subject matter the artist paints fictional scenes based on memory and the imagination depicting interiors and landscapes populated by creatures such as birds in flight, running deer and the female figure. Originally a native of Ballina the artist now lives and works full time as a painter in Co. Galway.
Runs until 25th April.
FREE Admission. ALL Welcome. Image  "Escape Route"

As many of you know 126 is a not for Profit voluntary run organisation which aims to support and provide professional opportunities to our members. Every year we must fundraise for up to 14,000 to cover just the core costs of running the gallery from electricity and heat to repairs/upgrades and rent. This Christmas we invited our generous members to take part once again in 126’s week-long “Affordable Art, Christmas Market” from December 14th to Sunday 23rd. The Market will be anonymous, it will only be revealed who the artist is once the piece has been sold. Come along and buy something you love and support both 126 and the artists this Christmas. All works are less than €150 and available to take away with you immediately.
Open 12-6 pm Saturday, 15th - Sunday 23rd December.
All Welcome.
