Alison Barry - Artist

A few months ago I was asked by a very lovely collector of my work if I would paint a mountain hare from her own photograph.
I think she's the sweetest thing and so glad she was well received 🤍🤍

I really was so grateful to be part of the 196th RHA annual exhibition this year, such a beautiful exhibition to see. It's in the last few days now and ends on August 9th.

'This little life' sold very early but I'm happy to say that I have limited edition prints available 🩵

This little fox was inspired from a photograph by Animal Magic Wildlife Displays. Based in Co Limerick Animal Magic are just that, they dedicate their lives to those of animals in need, wonderful people.
The cost of looking after so many between feeding, heating, vets bills etc must be huge and I'm sure Denis and Rosie are grateful for any support.

I'm giving away two 10x10" prints on Sunday, if you'd like a chance to have your own little fox all you have to do is..

Thinking of all those affected by the wildfires at Slievenamon, it's terrifying!
Hoping they will get it under control very soon. 🤎
