The storms are coming think and fast these days. Fierce though they are, they provide a wonderful magnetic attraction, particularly around our coasts, for along with the beasts that they are, they create powerful spectacles in the form of giant waves, massive splashes and magnificent movement.
Thank you so much for viewing my post. If you like stormy sea images, check out this tag on my website:

The place of inspiration, (though not much of the place may be obvious from this painting), is near Clogher Beach, viewed across the beach inlet from the walk known as Cosán na nEighe, towards Cuas na nEighe. Several of my recent paintings have been inspired by this often turbulent scene, with the very wild and stormy Atlantic Ocean and the rocky coastline at this spot.
One of the most wonderful places to be on the Dingle Peninsula. Inis Tiaracht and Inis Tuaisceart (Sleeping Giant) – both islands of the Blasket group, are on the horizon, left to right.
