Lovely Stuff - Bundoran

A limited edition A2 (420mm x 594mm) print to coincide with the release of our 2026 calendar, Lovely Stuff. This illustration of surfers at the seaside town of Bundoran, by Conor Nolan, is printed in Dublin on matte, Munken Pure 130g paper. It features as the April image in our 2026 calendar and is one of 3 images we produced as a limited edition A2 print. 

"Bundoran is a great spot but rather than it just being a nice place to go, it has an odd, very specific character to it that feels unlike other spots in Ireland. It's a seaside holiday town with an influx of surfers that feels a bit like if Blackpool was taken over by Australians. I tried surfing there and predictably unable to, but the pubs ad views are unbeatable." - Conor Nolan

Each A2 print is numbered. Printed in Dublin in an edition of 50.
