Scotsman’s Bay

This evocative oil painting captures the twilight stillness of Scotsman’s Bay, looking from the iconic Forty Foot toward the softly glowing lights of Dún Laoghaire. A golden wall and gentle reflections anchor the foreground, while the town stretches across the horizon, bathed in the last light of day. The scene is both familiar and dreamlike, offering a sense of quiet connection between land, sky, and sea.

Painted on a large wooden panel, the surface brings added warmth and texture to the deep blues, violets, and golden hues. The subtle brushwork and blended tones reflect the rhythm of the tides and the soft movement of dusk, inviting the viewer into a moment of calm. This is a painting rooted in place — but open to personal reflection and memory.
