About Keith
Abstract landscapes · Carrigaline, Co. Cork
Keith O'Brien is an abstract landscape painter based in Carrigaline, Co. Cork. Born in London and raised in Cork from the age of two, he has loved art since childhood and won prizes for it in primary school. In his twenties he painted street art for nightclubs and personal projects, before returning to painting in earnest in recent years.
Working in mixed media, Keith takes his inspiration from the coastlines of Cork and Kerry: light on water, shifting weather and colour pushed to its limits. He is an early riser who is often in the studio by 6.30am, and he exhibited at Art Source Cork in Cork City Hall in 2023.
Sharing incidental memories
Keith paints his own views of the Irish landscape: skies on fire over the sea, harbours at dusk and heathland in fading light. Each piece is about the feeling of a moment as much as the place itself.
