Tonight, I attended the opening of Michael Wann's exhibition 'The Old Grieving Fields' at Solomon Fine Art, Balfe Street, Dublin 2. I enjoyed looking at his many drawings done in charcoal on paper. He had created most of his artworks in a nice compact size from 23 x 30 cm to 70 x 60 cm.
I will discuss my favourite drawings starting with 'Omens/Crows Arriving'. It appeared quite eye-catching with all the passing birds in flight.
Omens/Crows Arriving by Muchael Wann
His 'Controlled Explosion' was the most dramatic image in his exhibition.
Controlled Explosion by Michael Wann
I liked his attention to detail in his road images.
The Old Work Road by Michael Wann
The High Bog Road by Michael Wann
A joy to view. Both artworks were small and hung in their own alcove with a third artwork that was similar in dimensions and subject matter.
I found this image to be evocative.
Aerial 3, Night Visions by Michael Wann
It reminded me of a dystopian vision of the future with fires burning in the distance under a dark sky.
Then there was the striking composition of helicopters flying in loose formation.
Recon by Michael Wann
I liked the short title. It added a sense of storytelling to this image.
Michael's exhibition will run until 1st Mar 2025. It was well worth seeing it.
Last night, I attended the opening of Catherine Owens’ exhibition ‘6 am’ at the Oliver Sears Gallery, 29 Molesworth St, Dub 2. The gallery was packed. Everyone there was very friendly. It was a treat to view work that looked a bit different. The curtains and LED lights added to the effect of seeing something new. Catherine’s show will run until 31st July 2018. Classy.Â

Spring Exhibition at Solomon Fine Art
There was plenty of variety of artworks at the opening of the Spring Exhibition at Solomon Fine Art, Balfe Street, Dublin 2. Work included figurative and abstract sculptures. The same variation with the paintings on show. Attached are photos of a few of my favorite artworks.
Surface by Ana Duncan
Lots of personality in the face.
Melodious Intrigue by Margaret Egan
The scene in this painting appears enigmatic.
Flex by Eilis O'Connell
Lovely composition
Clare Island Famine Ship by John Behan
I had always admired John's work.

Christine Loh at Reds
Tonight, I attended the opening of 'Unity', Christine Loh's exhibition at Reds Gallery, 21 Dawson Street, Dublin 2 D02 TK33. Christine's paintings were large, colourful and chearful. Most of them featured flowers. The venue was busy. People came and went. My favourite painting was 'Miracle Blossom'. It reminded me of Van Gogh's Sunflowers. Reds Gallery was up about three flights of stairs but was well worth the climb. Christine's exhibition will run until 13th Nov 2024.

Tonight, I attended the opening of Sean Conlon’s exhibition ‘The Empowerment of Nature’. Sean was very nice and I enjoyed viewing his work especially his woodland scenes like ‘The Bluebell Place’ and ‘Sunday Evening at Emo’. The music was complimenting the show was excellent. Classy.Â
