Born in Co. Cavan and now living in Co. Monaghan, Irish artist and poet Roisin Duffy uses her paintings and accompanying poetry to portray her unique view of the world. Working in acrylic on canvas, colour and balance are the most important aspects of her paintings. Her subject matter is the ordinary and the mundane things which are common to us all – home, family, personal relationships, and the connections people have to one another, be it friends, family or total strangers.
The landscapes she paints exist mainly in her imagination, landscapes that relate to the constant human seeking for peace and solitude, and for places that awe the mind and soothe the soul.
Roisin has had six solo exhibitions and taken part in numerous group shows. Her work is in the collections of Cavan County Council, The Airfield Trust, Pike Insurances, Bonfire Advertising, and in many private collections from Iceland to Japan.
To purchase a painting: You can buy directly from the artist, or through this website. Visits to the Red Door Studio in Co. Monaghan can also be arranged by appointment.
