"Dark Dreamer" with Nuala Holloway (RIP Chris Wilson)


RIP Chris Wilson, Environmentalist and Radio Presenter. I had the pleasure of working with him on a couple of short films, including this one, "Dark Dreamer", back in 2009 alongside Dermod Lynskey and Don Conroy. A wonderful gentleman who shall be missed.

Here "An Allegory of Italian Men" (Oil on Canvas) by artist Nuala Holloway is being carried through the streets of Florence before reaching the Palazzo Strozzi.

"Famine Ship - The Jeanie Johnston" by Nuala Holloway


"Famine Ship - The Jeanie Johnston" by Nuala Holloway - Oil on Canvas

(This is the original oil painting which, accepted by the U.S. Embassy in Dublin, was presented to U.S. President Barack Obama on his first official state visit to Ireland in 2011. The Jeanie Johnston represents the type of ship President Obama's Irish ancestors would have sailed on as they headed for America. President Obama subsequently sent a personal letter of gratitude to Nuala for her gift)
