Artist Statement:
Desmond Murrie: Irish Horse Painter.
His style is more an impression of what he sees rather than the actual scene. He says "impressionism allows me to add or subtract as a scene should dictate. I veered away from exactitude to a more expressive and evocative way of applying paint. I tend to let my paintings show more the feeling of the atmosphere, the excitments and apprehension of people and animals rather than a mundane scene which would be captured in a photograph
Desmond likes to paint "en plein air" thus capturing the spontaneity of the monent. He has particular love of painting charging horses and enjoys the electric feeling of horses and mounts jumping over fences or running down the straight.
He has painting in private collections in the U.S , England and at home....
