About John Quigley
Ard Rua Studio (Gaelic for Red Height) is located
in the picturesque village of Carrowmenagh,
on the east coast of the Inishowen Peninsula, County Donegal, Ireland.
This is the Studio / Art Gallery & Publishing House that exclusively
handles the work of artist John Quigley
John draws much inspiration from Irish mythology, Irish
Celtic manuscript decoration, stained glass, landscape and wildlife which
he fuses together to create his art.
His bold use of colour and line brought him to the attention of renowned Irish
artist
Jim Fitzpatrick who John collaborated with for a decade to produce a body
of work that
has adorned Greeting Cards, Calendars, Prints, Place Mats and Album Covers.
John's portfolio includes commissioned artwork for companies
such as:
Donegal Parian China, Riverdance, Paramount Studios, Waltons Music, Swordpoint
Intercontinental Ltd. and Guinness Ireland.
His work is in Private collections throughout the world which include pieces
owned by
Nobel prize winning Irish poet Seamus Heaney, Hollywood actress Roma Downey,
United States Senator Edward Kennedy and Philomena Lynott.
In addition to this are his own range of Celtic posters, Prints and Greeting
Cards which have received worldwide acclaim. These are available exclusively
from this site.
A book of John's work is in preparation and will be launched in the early
Summer of 2008
John's work can be viewed throughout the year at his Studio/Gallery
or by browsing through this website.
The Gallery Section has dozens of John's paintings
in various sections highlighting
much of his career as an artist.
