Sheila McClean
Sheila McClean, member of the ARUA, is a notable Irish painter,
whose impressionist style painting has led to her be described as
a "painter's painter". Originally from Moville and now
living in Derry, she paints the land and sea around her.
The late Derek Hill, a great admirer of her work, said, "Her
paintings capture the Donegal we all feel in retrospect".
Joseph McWilliams, PPRUA, said, "Her landscapes are painted
landscapes, her boglands are expressive marks of paint, on richly
textured surfaces redolent of bog cotton and dank brown pools.....
Her work reflects a deep understanding of both place and paint".
The paintings are the excellent portrayal of the events and scenes
that we see around us. The painters are the best cameras of the
world. They reproduce many different types of pictures. They even
draw imaginary pictures that do not exist in this world. We tend
to use both thinned oil paints and dense oil paints. Masterpieces
can be dyed more than once, but each time it may be different from
the existing paintings.h
