I made a morning time trip to Hook head, to make a couple of plein air paintings there.  It had been an ambition of mine for a good while to get there to do some painting en plein air.  I was lucky with the weather the morning I arrived and the wait was worth it.  From some of the studies I did there, I really felt that it was a subject that needed to be painted on a larger scale than the small panels that I had been working on.  I was able to base this painting on the information I collected from the studies I did and some photo references I took, to develop a more fully realised version of my impressions of Hook Head, and it’s iconic lighthouse building.
