Botanic Haven

Dublin’s Botanic Haven oil painting captures the essence of Dublin’s Botanic Gardens, Glasnevin and was created en plein air.

In this piece, you’ll find a depiction of the gardens’ vibrant greenery, accompanied by one of the prominent glasshouses. The glasshouse, with its green-tinted windows, though in the background, serves as the focal point, merging human architectural design with the surrounding natural landscape.

I aimed to create a scene that transports the viewer into the gardens themselves. The interplay of light, the variety of shrubery, all contribute to an immersive experience that invites you to explore every element within the painting.

Whether you have personal experience with the Botanic Gardens or not, my intention was to encapsulate the calming atmosphere of this space.
