About This Image

Standing atop the fabled Hill of Tara in Ireland was an excellent end to my month in Ireland. And as you can tell from this Hill of Tara panorama print, the day couldn’t have been clearer or sunnier. It’s really hard to look back on this photo and believe that it was late January when I stood there. The weather was easily some of the best I had during my month in Ireland.

The view from the top was so amazing and vast that the only way I could imagine to properly showcase it was the Hill of Tara panorama you see here. Even a panoramic shot is just a section of that endless view of the green Irish countryside. And Ireland was definitely where I hit my stride on panoramas. It seemed every place I visited, the vistas were always bigger and grander than one simple frame could contain!

In the age of kings, the Hill of Tara was the symbolic seat of the high king, but the hill has seen human activity for far, far longer than that. The gentle mounds and ditches you see in that landscape are what remains of truly ancient Neolithic earthworks like the mounds and chamber tombs that still dot the Boyne Valley today. These prehistoric sites on the Hill of Tara were built over by subsequent generations but there was still much of that history to be found when modern archaeologists came here. There was a sense of coming full circle when I got here as I had seen some of those finds at the museum in Dublin weeks before seeing Tara in person.

It’s amazing to stand in a place like this and imagine those people thousands of years before who stood here as well gazing out upon the same vast Irish countryside… This little plot of earth has been special for a long time.

Have you stood on this same hill top? Gazed at the same view in this Hill of Tara panorama? Perhaps this vista simply reminds you of your own Irish heritage? I’d love to hear what appeals to you about this Irish print?

How Can I Help?

At the end of the day, it’s important to me that you can put a face with the art you’re considering purchasing through my site. Aside from the print vendor who ultimately prints and ships your order, this is a one man show. The person who made the art is the same one who is typing this message and the one who will answer your questions if you drop me a note.

You are not a number and I care that you are happy with whatever art you might buy here. I’m here if you’d like to ask questions before or after purchasing. And I’m also happy to work with you where possible to customize the work you’re buying. Maybe you’d like a tweak to the shape of a print to fit in with your existing wall art. Or you’d like to add a little nod to someone special in it? Just ask! I also keep a running list of subjects I don’t currently have but people are seeking. So if you enjoy the style of my work but didn’t find quite what you were looking for, please do let me know.

I’ve been an artist for 15 years now and most of that time it’s been my full-time passion. And it matters to both the endorphins in my brain and the food I put on the table for me (and my cats) that you find the experience of purchasing the products offered here to be a pleasure.
