Green Leaves on a Pond (Limited Edition)

In the serene embrace of Lough Cullaunyheeda in County Clare, Ireland, this artwork, "Green Leaves on a Pond,” captures a moment of tranquillity that belies the complexities of existence. 

Brilliant green leaves, vibrant and full of life, float delicately on the water's calm surface, cradled by its gentle ripples. These leaves represent hope and renewal, a vivid contrast to the darker elements that surround them.

As one gazes deeper, the dark reeds and the reflections of overhanging branches weave together to form a haunting tapestry. This interplay of light and shadow creates an imaginary spectre that whispers of impending doom—a metaphor for the challenges we face in our world today.

The looming presence of these dark elements reminds us of the threats posed by climate change and pollution, echoing the urgent need for us to confront these issues with courage and resolve.

Yet, amidst the shadows, the leaves persist in their buoyancy, urging us to find peace within ourselves. The artwork beckons us to recognise that just as imaginary monsters often disrupt our tranquillity, our fears about the environment can cloud our vision. We must not allow them to overshadow life's beauty and serenity.

This piece is more than a mere depiction of nature; it is a call to action. It compels us to care for our environment and to nurture the world around us. As we reflect on the delicate balance between light and dark, let us remember that every small action counts. By caring for our planet, we can ensure that the brilliant green leaves continue to float atop the waters of Lough Cullaunyheeda, a symbol of resilience and hope for generations to come.
