Patrick John Walshe (born November 1952) is an Irish painter.
Walshe was born in Ennis in the West of Ireland, Walshe was educated at the Benedictine Abbey of Glenstal from 1964 to 1970. He then attended Trinity College, Dublin, 1970-74 where he studied for an Honours degree in Business. He was president of the Art Soc from 1971-74. He had his first exhibition at the Tom Caldwell Gallery on Baggot Street, Dublin with fellow artist Tim Booth, late of Dr. Strangely Strange in 1976. In 1982 he moved to New York and lived in a loft in Brooklyn and while working as a chef at the Water Club he was part of the East Village art scene of the time, exhibiting at the Beuhlahland Gallery, on Avenue A, owned by Susan Hannaford-Rose, in 1984. From there Walshe moved to Los Angeles in 1986, again working as a chef to support his painting. He exhibited widely, with Renata Beuhler in North Wells Street in Chicago 91989 and 1990)and numerous Los Angeles galleries (John Thomas, Wilshire Tower Gallery and Fullerton County Museum). In 1992 Walshe left the U.S. and spent two years travelling and painting across Asia and Africa before settling back in Ireland with his family. He now lives and paints in County Wicklow and exhibits regularly in both Britain and Ireland. He is in many collections throughout the world, but because of his early restlessness he remains somewhat of an outsider in the art world.
Since 2004, Walshe has developed a technique of painting on canvas overlaid with silver leaf in order to give a three-dimensional quality to his images. He has exhibited these paintings in Russborough House, courtesy of the Sir Alfred Beit Foundation in 2009 and 2010, The Orangery, Holland Park, London 2010 and most importantly in Christ Church Cathedral, Dublin in April 2012. Exhibition at Art Hub, Abu Dhabi, June 2010. www.arthub.ae

However, he ceased to visit the Aran Islands in 1965.

Patrick Anthony Hennessy RHA was an Irish realist painter. He was known for his highly finished still lifes, landscapes and trompe l'oeil paintings. The hallmark of his style was his carefully observed realism and his highly finished surfaces, the result of a virtuoso painting technique. He was brought up in Arbroath by his mother and step-father, his father having been killed during World War One. He attended Dundee School of Art where he met his lifelong companion, the painter Henry (Harry) Robertson Craig. Two of his paintings were accepted in 1939 at the Royal Scottish Academy for their Annual Exhibition. For the next 29 years he lived in Ireland with extended trips abroad. He was elected a member of the Royal Hibernian Academy in 1949. The Hendriks Gallery in Dublin and the Guildhall Galleries in Chicago were the main outlets for his work. In the late 1960s he moved permanently to Tangier and then, after suffering ill health, to the Algarve. He died in London.
Peter Plagens is an American artist, art critic, and novelist based in New York City. He is most widely known for his longstanding contributions to Artforum and Newsweek, and for what critics have called a remarkably consistent, five-decade-long body of abstract formalist painting. Plagens has written three books on art, Bruce Nauman: The True Artist (2014), Moonlight Blues: An Artist's Art Criticism (1986) and Sunshine Muse: Modern Art on the West Coast, 1945-70 (1974), and two novels, The Art Critic (2008) and Time for Robo (1999). He has been awarded major fellowships for both his painting and his writing. Plagens's work has been featured in surveys at the Museum of Modern Art, Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), Whitney Museum, and PS1, and in solo exhibitions at the Hirshhorn Museum and Las Vegas Art Museum. In 2004, the USC Fisher Gallery organized and held a 30-year traveling retrospective of his work. Critics have contrasted the purely visual dialogue his art creates—often generating more questions than answers—with the directness of his writing; they also contend that the visibility of his bylines as a critic has sometimes overshadowed his artmaking—unduly. Los Angeles Times critic David Pagel described Plagens's painting as a "fusion of high-flying refinement and everyday awkwardness" with an intellectual savvy, disdain for snobbery and ungainliness he likened to Willem de Kooning's work. Reviewing Plagens's 2018 exhibition, New York Times critic Roberta Smith called the show an "eye-teasing sandwich of contrasting formalist strategies," the hard-won result of a decade of focused experimentation.
John Mulvany was an Irish born American artist best known as an artist of the American West who painted the first large (11ftx21ft) image of General Custer’s defeat by the Oglala Sioux Indians at Little Big Horn in 1876.

Charles Gaines is an American artist whose work interrogates the discourse of aesthetics, politics, and philosophy. Taking the form of drawings, photographic series and video installations, the work consistently involves the use of systems, predominantly in the form of the grid, often in combination with photography. His work is rooted in Conceptual Art – in dialogue with artists such as Sol LeWitt, Lawrence Weiner and Mel Bochner – and Gaines is committed to its tenets of engaging cognition and language. As one of the only African-American conceptual artists working in the 1970s, a time when political expressionism was a prevailing concern among African-American artists, Gaines was an outlier in his pursuit of abstraction and non-didactic approach to race and politics. There is a strong musical thread running through much of Gaines' work, evident in his repeated use of musical scores as well in his engagement with the idea of indeterminacy, as similar to John Cage and Sol LeWitt.
