'The Little Castle of Ringmahon' is an oil on canvas that the Artist painted in 1992. It is one of many studies of the castle that he has done over the years. The little castle is a 'folly' that still stands today; however, the local authority undertook some remedial work on it in recent years so the 'old rustic' feel is gone. If you want to find it, travel on the No.302 Bus route to Blackrock from Cork city and it is just opposite the bus terminus there. A print of this particular prize-winning canvas was used in the Cork Civil Trust calendar that year. The castle was also the inspiration behind the Artist's design for a local school's crest. A set of limited edition prints, signed and stamped by the artist, is available; email Mícheál for full details.

Mícheál Ó'Muirthile is a national prize-winning artist from Ireland whose forte includes equine art, landscape and portraiture paintings & drawings. His work is in private collections throughout Ireland, England, continental Europe, America, Canada, Australia and the Middle East. 


He is greatly influenced by his local place and by the immense pool of inspirational detail that is available throughout the island of Ireland.

“The artist..........is also a born adventurer. His explorations, unlike those of the tourist, are rewarded by the discovery of beauty spots unmentioned in the guide books, and with tireless curiosity and an exceptional proneness to wonderment, he will come upon objects of remarkable interest overlooked or even shunned by more disciplined observers.” These wise words by Augustus John, R.A., could not be bettered in providing a mental picture of where the artist Mícheál Ó’Muirthile centres his creativity.

He currently lives in the beautiful Lee Valley, in Macroom town, near Cork City in Ireland.  His people hailed from south of Dunmanway nearby to Ballinacarriga Castle, the seat of the Ó’Muirthile Clan in West Cork.
