Martin Driscoll Irish Art

"The Emerald Isle Experience" Martin Driscoll's paintings draw nourishment from both his Irish and American roots.

Experience the Emerald Isle in Every Painting

Born in New York, Driscoll has dual citizenship, thanks to his
Gaelic-speaking mother, and his training is American, in the tradition
of the great illustrators from Norman Rockwell to Frank Reilly, with
whom he studied at the Art Students League. Reilly, a very prominent
illustrator, photographer and cinematographer in his own right,
developed a scientific approach to color that changed the way studio art
has been taught since then, and his understanding of intensity emerges
strongly in Driscoll's images.

Driscoll paid for his education with a night job at Pan Am
Airlines that led to work in the airline industry for 27 years. "I went
to art school not thinking of becoming a commercial artist," he said. "I
wanted to learn something I would love all my life."
