Excerpt from cowparade.net -

Deborah Donnelly is a young Dublin artist who has returned home after living in the states for the past couple of years.
Deborah’s most recent major work, though, is a giant portrait of a cow which stares head on at the veiwer, an energetic assemblage of flashing brushstrokes, done in otherworldly shades of green, yellow, blue.

Donnelly’s work is all about color; most of her paintings exhibit strong doses of primary shades, red, yellow, and blue. These imbue otherwise typical landscapes with a refreshing comtempory quality. The work owes debt to French painting of the turn of the 20th Century, and maybe even a little Van Gogh, but also carries a lot of Donnelly’s more adventurous style.
