Barrow Valley Artists workshop

By Neil Condron

I was invited by the Barrow Valley Artists in County Carlow to host a pastel workshop on Sunday (23rd Sept). I had a fantastic day working with a lovely group of very enthusiastic artists. I started with a chat about my pastel work, discussed the use of various materials and then followed with a short demonstration on how I approach pastel portraits. For the rest of the day the room was a rainbow of pastel dust as the Barrow Valley Artists painted ‘pastel mode’ with gusto.

I’m looking forward to going to their annual exhibition (not just pastels) on the 11th of October.

Now that the great Tiger is out of the woods….

By Neil Condron

Tiger woods

I painted this pastel portrait of Tiger Woods in 2009 just before he fell from grace! I had a batch of limited edition prints made (40)and they were selling quite well. Plus I had promotional postcards printed featuring my “Tiger Woods’ painting as a demonstration of my portraits. No sooner were they off the printing press when the bold (very bold) Tiger was caught offside and his popularity plummeted and so did my “Tiger Woods’ Limited Edition Print sales…!

Well the Tiger is back after his great win at  the Arnold Palmer Invitational in Orlando and hopefully some of his fans will decide to invest in one of my prints (or the original – hanging proudly at here in my studio)…I knew he’d be back!

If you are interested in a Tiger Woods print go to my ‘Limited Edition Prints‘ page. If you are interested in the original framed pastel painting send me an enquiry and we can take it from there.
