Jenny McCarthy is an established contemporary Irish artist who lives and works in the remote west Kerry village of Ventry on the very edge of Ireland’s west coast. Jennys’ paintings are oil on canvas and her works include the dramatic scenery where she lives. More technical works such as the Navigator series feature detailed paintings of sailboats and navigational instruments. She employs a limited palette to create a purer result and is influenced by Monet for colour and by Turner, for light.
