About This Image
During my stay in Galway City, I had plenty of classically beautiful days even in the midst of a colder-than-normal Irish winter. As you can see from my other Galway City art prints, blue skies and sunshine were not a foreign concept. But for much of my stay there, mornings started out foggy, particularly down close to the waterfront. But each day, the fog burned off and the sun made a grand appearance.
At least that was the case until the zenith of the foggy mornings struck. On that day,the fog over Galway City never lifted and the sun made a weak appearance. There would probably be many a sane person who took that as their cue to stay indoors, but, as you can see, there’s an ethereal beauty in a dense fog. I spent most of the day out wandering the streets of Galway City and enjoying the unusual weather. In fact, by evening it had changed over to a freezing fog adding to the ice that was already all over.
I was particularly fascinated by how the fog transformed The Long Walk In Galway City. These classic Irish homes normally have a view of the waters of Galway Bay! But not on this day. The distant hills surrounding the bay are nowhere to be seen, but look at the billowing thick fog and the sense of the icy cold that pervades this Irish print! Not the classic blue skies view of the Long Walk in Galway City but incredibly beautiful in its own way! Don’t you agree?
After that first week, I was in and out of Galway City visiting a few places nearby but I never saw the like of that freezing fog again over the remainder of my time there. I’m proud of all my prints from Galway, but their comparative rarity has always made my foggy Galway artwork stand out in my mind.
