Gorse Blackbird & Berry

Gorse is such a familiar shrub, seen all around the Irish countryside, with its spiny, prickly branches and bright yellow flowers. The thorny nature of the gorse bush provides excellent protection for birds and wildlife.

Martina's image of the blackbird on the Gorse bush is printed in a deep blue with just one spot of red for the berry that the bird holds in its beak. Screen printed on Irish linen as part of a series titled "Summer Walks" evoking memories of walking by wild hedgerows in the Irish countryside.

Martina Scott's limited edition prints have captured the essence of Cooley Peninsula's breathtaking landscapes, since 2015. Each piece reflects her detailed drawings inspired by nature's beauty. Based in Carlingford, County Louth and nestled at the foot of the Cooley Mountains, Martina finds inspiration in the smallest weeds to the grandest mountains. Her work, both on linen and textured paper, embodies her deep connection to the natural world, showcasing her breathtaking surroundings in every print.

The print itself, within the mount, measures 15cm x 15cm. The mount measures 30cm x 30cm and fits our large Rocker Lane Workshop square frames perfectly.

Each print is signed by the artist and numbered as an edition of 250/300 prints.
