Of Dreams & Half-Forgotten Memories: Painting the Ephemeral
A weeklong retreat at Essence of Mulranny Studios, Mulranny Ireland
August 23 – 30, 2025
Our dreams and visual memories are quite unlike still or moving images captured by a camera even as we often use those images as source material.
Our mind’s eye envisions fragments and traces of images that overlay one another, shaped, reshaped, accentuated and even distorted by our emotional and visceral responses.
During this retreat, we will immerse ourselves in Mulranny’s spectacular wild Atlantic coastal landscape, exploring ways to tap into our vast internal reservoirs of fleeting visual memories—memories of people, places and things—and then express our responses to those ephemeral images as we work with wax media on paper and panels.
