RC-GE3 Nora Barnacle 2/25 24.5 x 70.5 cm 9.5 x 27.75 ins Nora Barnacle Joyce The watercolour painting is taken from the wedding photograph of Nora Barnacle Joyce on 4th July, 1931.

They had two children, Georgia and Lucia at this time. In the background from left to right are effigies of James Joyce taken, firstly, from a photograph of him outside Sylvia Beach's shop, Shakespeare & Co in the Rue de l'Odeon in Paris in 1921; secondly from a photo of Joyce taken in his friend C.P Curran's back garden in 1904 and finally from the bronze statute at the top of North Earl Street in Dublin. This is a limited edition of 25 giclee prints of the original paintings, each signed and numbered by the artist and sent rolled and ready for framing.

RC-GE2 Am I Walking into Eternity...? 3/25 71 x 51 cm 28 x 20.02 ins Am I Walking into Eternity...? This painting is my interpretation of this expression of James Joyce's (1882-1941) as spoken by Stephen Dedalus as he walks on his way from Dalkey towards Dublin in the novel, "Ulysses" in chapter 3. Sandymount Strand is tidal and when the tide goes out very far and one does not look to left or right one gets the feeling of total isolation with only the sky meeting the horizon in the far distance. In 1904 this whole area was quite bleak and appeared to go on for ever. This painting is now offered as a giclee print edition of 25, hand signed and numbered by the Artist, sent rolled and ready for framing.
