- New for 2024 Grace O Malley & The Howth Affair A Message from the artist. At the height of her fame as The Pirate Queen, Grace O Malley landed after dark in the port of Howth Co Dublin to enjoy some local hospitality. On approaching Castle Howth above the town she was abruptly turned away by the local lord who would not offer any welcome. Angered she was returning to her boat when she came across the grandson of the lord who she promptly kidnapped and took her on board to her Co Mayo home on the west coast of Ireland. After some time the lord followed to plead for his release. Grace granted this if he promised to always offer a welcome to visitors in the future. To this day Howth castle displays a lit candle in an upper window and a place laid at the table to welcome others. I painted this picture using acrylic paints in 2008 as part of my semi cubist styled work to be displayed in a large exhibition at the RDS in Dublin.The first image on the left was of a fiery red haired Grace dragging the boy aboard , this was pointed out by my wife as being "too Hollywood" so I painted a new head over the original . This time she was showing an angry and determined moment much more in keeping with her character, this is the image today. Perhaps at some future date an historian may x ray the painting to reveal a ghostly hidden face. I liked the story so much I decided to keep the original in my private collection and not to re produce it in print..Now after 16 years I am ready to sell the original and a limited edition of Giclee prints which I have signed.The style is quite unique and illustrates a traditional story in a contemporary way.

Croeso i / Welcome to Anglesey Art

Limited edition prints and original artwork by Welsh artist Andrew Southall.

"Art is not the recreation of the visible , it is creating visible" - Paul Klee

Inspired by artists such as Pablo Piccasso, Paul Klee and Lionel Fenninger, Welsh artist Andrew Southall has had a lifetime fascination with abstract cubist artwork. Andrew's distinctive contemporary style adds a unique depth and transparency to traditional Welsh landscape scenes.

At the moment I am looking for a shop to display a lot of new and established work. I will be sharing my time between talking to customers and working in the studio

This coming year the number of exhibitions and shows I will be attending will be limited considerably to allow me to concentrate on new work in the studio and promote my on line sales. The best place to see a wide selection of my paintings is at my Anglesey studio which is open by appointment all year round.

I will be including an updated catalogue of original work which is available and for sale on this site and on twitter and facebook in the next few months. E mail me if you are interested and cannot get over to Anglesey but would like more photos and details.

If you are visiting Anglesey please call at the studio to see my latest work and some old favourited. Phone 01248 421353 to check opening times
