About Artist:
Irish artist Fintan Whelan, (born 1967) is known for his large-scale mixed-media abstracts with oils, varnishes and pigments on canvas. Fintan trained at the Dun Laoghaire School of Art and the Dublin Institute of Technology, studying Art and Design and Graphic Design respectively.
Fintan had his first solo show in 2005 and has since gone on to exhibit his work in exhibitions in London, New York and Germany. His artwork has also been acquired by collectors in North America, Europe and United Arab Emirates and Australia.
Fintan Whelan's method of painting is characterised by an immediacy of process and a urgency of vision, which he has been developing over several years. Despite the appearance of serendipity, Whelan's technique involves constant assessment, measurement and exploration of pigments and their configurations, combined with varnishes, oils and a variety of materials.
The challenge that Whelan's art presents constitutes his motivation - that is to create resonances between or among the senses by exploiting the ever-changing detail of light and texture. His abstracts are worlds eliciting a multitude of emotional and intellectual responses that we, as viewers, must resolve.
