Samhradh - Summer - Modern geometric abstract

Samhradh is Irish for "summer". Summers here out West tend to be brief, barely warm, rarely hot. Rain is never far away. On the upside, it's always green...
Cool blues and greens dominate in this colourful modern abstract geometric work, with small interludes of warm vibrant orange.

Originally from Northern Germany, I have been living on a small farm in the West of Ireland for many years. I love to be creative, to create new things, be it arts and crafts or in image form. A few years ago I started to create digital works, based on my photographs or purely in Photoshop - the latter mostly as abstract works. Recently I have also started working with acrylic paints. I like to "play" with colours and digital effects.
My inspiration comes mainly from my immediate rural, rustic surroundings. So I often use distressed textures, plants, my farm animals, the sea, earth colours. When the often grey skies here get to me, I sometimes resort to brighter colours to compensate.
If you purchased one of my art prints, it'd be great if you shared a photo of your purchase in its 'new home'. Find me on Instagram or Mastodon.

ps. For Reasons: My digital art is made by me in a 2012 version of Photoshop (CS6), not by AI. My take on generative AI art is that it is soulless 'instant art', devoid of graft and craft. More importantly, in my mind it also constitutes mass copyright infringement, as billions of images available online (including my own) have been siphoned into the underlying databases from which the AI images are concocted without the creatives' knowledge and consent, or indeed any recompense.
