In his eternal endeavour to reveal a landscape’s spirit, Kenneth is drawn again and again to the peat bogs of Connemara, on the west coast of Ireland. Despite being physically removed from Connemara for the past two years, this landscape is never far from the forefront of Kenneth’s memory. Steeped in history, the Derrygimla Bog provided an ethereal setting to Kenneth’s unique landscapes. A prehistoric trackway, exposed when peat was cut from the bog in the past, marks the earliest in a long line of important historic sites belonging to this otherworldly landscape

  • Kenneth Webb is one of Irelands leading painters. Brought up in post-war Britain, from a young age Kenneth was inspired by the Gloucestershire countryside where he grew up. In 1974 Kenneth purchased the Ballinaboy Studio in Connemara on the west coast of Ireland, and this wonderful place has offered a multitude of inspiration to Kenneth for over forty years. Kenneths magnificent ethereal landscapes of Connemara, his colourful and textured paintings of poppies and his shimmering visions of his favoured waterlily pool are instantly recognisable for their vibrancy and gestural brushstrokes. So unique and striking are his paintings that over the past decade with our gallery, his work has amassed an international following culminating with the seminal exhibition Kenneth Webb at 90. Despite his 91 years, Kenneth is as prolific as ever and his work continues to explore creative boundaries.
