The Vision of Donna McGee

Painting en Plein Air - Embracing Nature's Challenges

plein air painting donna mcgee

When the weather permits, I love painting outdoors, en plein air. It’s a great experience to capture the ever-changing light amidst the rapid movements of nature. From the wind playfully stealing my canvas to the unpredictable shifts of weather, every painting session is an adventure. I participate in  plein air painting festivals, Art in the Open and the Dublin Plein Air Festival, where fellow artists and I come together to capture the beauty of our surroundings. Sometimes, I will be just as happy to paint outdoors in my garden particularly when the sun shines.

Nurturing Creativity in schools

I am also a passionate educator and wish to share my love of learning. Actively participating  in arts-in-residence programmes with local schools such as the BLAST initiative (bringing live art to students and teachers) aiming to nurture creativity and critical teaching among young people. Further demonstrated with the Teacher Artist Partnership enhancing arts in education in Irish Primary Schools.
