'The Orchard 2013' is an oil on paper. This is one of many studies of the orchard at the Artist's home that he'd undertaken over the years since the early 1990s. When he bought the cottage initially in the late 80s there were two old apple trees there. Unfortunately, the house had been idle for almost a decade and as such the trees were not great producers of fruit. However, they were great foundation-blocks for his children's development as they had great fun in the orchard learning so many things and even built a tree-house on a limb which hung right over the boreen at one stage. Over time they lost these two trees to age and decay; however, at that time he had planted many more fruit trees so the orchard lives on!! A set of limited edition prints, signed & stamped by the artist, is available; email Mícheál for full details.

Mícheál Ó'Muirthile is a national prize-winning artist from Ireland whose forte includes equine art, landscape and portraiture paintings & drawings. His work is in private collections throughout Ireland, England, continental Europe, America, Canada, Australia and the Middle East. 


He is greatly influenced by his local place and by the immense pool of inspirational detail that is available throughout the island of Ireland.

“The artist..........is also a born adventurer. His explorations, unlike those of the tourist, are rewarded by the discovery of beauty spots unmentioned in the guide books, and with tireless curiosity and an exceptional proneness to wonderment, he will come upon objects of remarkable interest overlooked or even shunned by more disciplined observers.” These wise words by Augustus John, R.A., could not be bettered in providing a mental picture of where the artist Mícheál Ó’Muirthile centres his creativity.

He currently lives in the beautiful Lee Valley, in Macroom town, near Cork City in Ireland.  His people hailed from south of Dunmanway nearby to Ballinacarriga Castle, the seat of the Ó’Muirthile Clan in West Cork.
