Orla Gilkeson Art
Bio
I am an artist and photographer, playing with light and living by the sea in County Down. I aim to capture something extraordinary within the ordinary. This often results in an abstracted rendering of landscapes and seascapes. Abstract paintings challenge us to accept the realisation that we see through a particular mindscape at a particular moment. Our interpretation is constantly changing. It is evernew.
