Some of the most popular paintings which still hav

Some of the most popular paintings which still have a few prints available. 💙

My Dad died because he needed a new heart in 1991,

My Dad died because he needed a new heart in 1991, his illness was not cancer. However, I understand Melissa's take on friends not fully understanding how to react to her loss. As we gather the lovely e mails about purchasing my new 'Sea swim at Portavoe' print which we will be giving 20% of the sale to @cancerfocusni , this story struck a cord.
It is necessary to keep talking through grief and to not shy away from the big questions. I have learned the importance of this over the past thirty years since Dad died. As a child I was even bullied for "having no Dad", sometimes I pretended I did have a Father so the I wouldn't be different or have to say he was dead.
Children adapt but the more open we are the more we can help others to journey difficult paths. None of us is immune to grief and loss.
The interest for the print has been so big that we launched it on the site. Sharon has taken the names of all who have e mailed and you will get the first of this limited run of print. Thank you 💜

Back in 2012 when @dombarnard helped me build my first website called ‘Scribbles and Pictures’, I was a professional photographer and painter. I no longer work as a photographer even though I adored it!

Dom and I chatted about my reasons for making prints and selling my art online. It was a whole new world at the time!

The main reason I shared with him, which still remains, is because I wanted my art to reach people and to live on the wall as friends, families and visitors sit around a table discussing everyday life.

It’s even more special when the location of the painting or print, its colour palette or the memory conjures up positive associations and familiarities for the parties around that table.

Joel of @thecuriousfarmer shows the A1 ‘beach walks at east strand ‘ behind his kitchen table where there are the two sweet interested parties to the left! Both awaiting discussions about the time they will walk east strand Portrush and skip into the choppy waves.

The frame Joel has chosen for this print is one I favour at the minute- a simple thin wood to house a statement piece like the one above. Thanks for showing how you #StyleYourPrint

I remember during my degree a visiting artist said

I remember during my degree a visiting artist said she was inspired by everything around her and her daily experiences. I thought she was talking crap. Turns out that’s exactly what I do and where my paintings derive from - my everyday.

‘Sea swim at Portavoe’ acrylic on 12 x8” canvas. * Timelapse ➡️* I plan to run prints of this and give 20% to @cancerfocusni following on from @aldy.bt20 ’Dip a day’ in April to raise money for the charity.

I have joined @thecoastalmama and a few other folks on their daily dips and obviously it’s great for mental wellbeing, but more importantly we talk about the great work that @cancerfocusni do for patients and their families as they journey cancer. Having watched my cousin Avril suffer at the hands of breast cancer, I am so thankful for the work of charities like this.

DM @sharonjenningspa._.alyharte if you would like to pre order the print. It will be a6 (6x4”) inside an a5 white border.

Placing importance on the everyday at its best!! The white rocks beach original from my 71 exhibition alongside the wetsuit rack where colours match and vibrancy resides. Thanks @thecoastalmama for showing how your #styleyouroriginal #alyharte painting 💜.

“Wrong will be right, when Aslan comes in sight,

“Wrong will be right, when Aslan comes in sight,
At the sound of his roar, sorrows will be no more,
When he bares his teeth, winter meets its death,
And when he shakes his mane, we shall have spring again. “ #CSLewis

The mighty Aslan. You asked for larger size and we delivered! Now available in dinky a6 and impressive A1. My mailing list got first dibs but there are some left of this limited run. Tap product to view on my shop.

Dress for the job you want, not the job you have..

Dress for the job you want, not the job you have... mechanic springs to mind!? This is my Dad’s boiler suit ( he was a car mechanic) and even though it’s the most unflattering thing, it is durable, I can wear my normal clothes AND a dressing gown under it on cold days 🤣and it keeps everything clean. It’s covered in paint marks from years of paintings. Do you like to keep sentimental clothing ? Only recently I gave a green Adidas rain Mac to charity that I had worn from I was 17.

Have a great Friday evening.

This piece is called ‘Walk to the shipyard, Belfast’. It is 120 Cm x 120cm. DM for details.

Sometimes working on the floor is the only option when easels are full. Thick oils to bring wild tulips to life on an 11x7 “ canvas. Timelapse above, filmed in the messy studio, the wrong way round so you’ll have to tilt your head!! 🌷 #FridayFun

‪Paintings of the people of #Belfast. From sketches of the older folk. I have given them names. ‘Edna’ and ‘Paddy at the bench’ who is unfinished. More oil needed.‬

The further into my career I venture the more I un

The further into my career I venture the more I understand why galleries and shop windows exist. As my Mother used to say when we shopped for my new School uniform “ Lift that off the hanger then try it on so you get a true reading!”.

Naturally, one can’t try on a painting but having been able to see my sister in law ( in our garden) this past week- I let her see the paintings in my home studio. The same thought is communicated - it’s only when you see the paintings in real life that you can appreciate the thick paint gestures, the scale of a piece and the detail when colours overlap. It’s difficult to account for that real life engagement when you are positioned in front of a painting.

Nonetheless, I’m thankful for all things digital at a time when I cannot have customers to my studio. Videos made using the very phone in my hand while I make a voice over about the piece have been amazing for connecting with you.

The last thing I want to mention is that the majority of you seem to be using your laptop or desktop to view the paintings on my website. This is a change as it was predominantly mobile. However, this is a great way to view the original art because your experience of the painting on a larger screen will definitely bring you closer to the real thing... for your “true reading”.

Click the link in my bio and the Paintings button will take you straight to the original art. We changed things so you have less navigating to do 😃💜

The above piece is drying on the easel and it is called ‘Searching for shells at stormy Groomsport’. Acrylic on 30 x 20” canvas.

I love the minis. #DonabateBeach on the outskirts

I love the minis. #DonabateBeach on the outskirts of Dublin. Thick acrylic on 5x5” canvas. 🌊

Best bit about my return to work, after my meeting

Best bit about my return to work, after my meeting with @sharonjenningspa._.alyharte is the paint!! It may be difficult to recognise but the top left of the painting- those are little caravans on the coast at Groomsport. Timelapse video of this piece to follow.

Which Irish beach would you choose for a sunny day

Which Irish beach would you choose for a sunny day trip in August? Thanks Eleanor for showing your ‘White Park bay’ and ‘Barleycove’ limited edition prints in your home. Muted wall tones always make the colours more vibrant. 💙💜

Two things- 1. How is my dog the best looking one

Two things- 1. How is my dog the best looking one in this picture?! 🥰. 2. Do you ever worry that you only feature in about 10% of photos and if you were ever to pass away your kids would only see selfies of you which show them hanging off your neck or doing bunny ears on your hair!?

It used to pain me to ask the boys or @harteldork to take a photo with me in it but now I am thankful for the squinty eyes and out of focus snaps because they show I exist!! As well as remind me of the tight hug felt in that moment.

I imagine this obsession with the outtakes is because even now, 30 years on, I still search my late father out in every birthday party pic where he lingers with a cup of tea in the background. Or as he laughs at my Uncle during a get together - complete with 80s style fine pin stripe short sleeved shirt and slacks.

A friend and I walked last night and we laughed at our various hairstyles over the years ( At art college I used to bleach and dye my fringe pink / purple!). Again, we were thankful (!) for photos showing the memory that was.

No matter how many images of everyday moments and bad fashion I sift through, whether they’re current with my family, hours after the three boys were born in the maternity ward with its harsh lighting, or a capture of my Mum, brother and me standing at the door of our caravan in Portballintrae, I soak it in.

I’m all about no phone on walks. However, when I do get a wee Easter snap like this from the time I brought my phone with me, I feel happy for the memory.

How many pics did you feature in this Easter? Which beach or park did you go for a walk at? Happy Tuesday!

Normal service resumes for myself and @sharonjenningspa._.alyharte tomorrow. Your print orders and enquiries will be dealt with after our morning zoom meeting ( and no doubt our third coffee after the early risers in both of our households!).
