This original Galway Ireland canvas print features a scene reminiscent of ghosts in the fog. This was based on photos from somewhere in the pedestrian area of the old city. I know if you've read the descriptions of my other foggy scenes that I may sound like a broken record, but for me there's truly something magical about the fog. Perhaps even a bit ghostly. Everything has less form in the fog. Especially as it gets more distant. There's so much less depth in a foggy landscape and it plays with our senses, doesn't it? I think it may be even more so on a city street at night. With lights reflecting in the fog, the world becomes a muddle of light and color and people walking in the fog become little more than ghosts. Unless you're right on top of the person, you can't see much detail.
That ghostly feeling was what I was trying to convey here along with the sense of lighting and colors from warm to cool lighting to the colorful Irish store fronts.
I would love to hear what captures your attention in this Galway canvas artwork? Have you been or does the art speak to you more from the feeling in it? I hope you'll share your thoughts on this ghosts in the fog scene from Galway, Ireland.

Canvas Prints - Product Information
Stretched canvas prints are a great choice for decorating your home or office. Canvas art is a classic choice that is at home in traditional and modern decor alike.
After the purchase of your canvas print, it is made to your order. The artwork is printed on an acid-free poly/cotton blend canvas. The use of archival inks and substrate means that your canvas art print should last a lifetime without fading or loss of color.
When ordering your print, you have a choice between glossy and matte finishes. While I ordinarily love matte finishes on prints, I do like the sheen that comes on glossy canvas prints. Ultimately I would suggest letting the amount of light in your space guide your choice. In a brightly lit environment, I would lean towards a matte finish to reduce the chance of glare.
There are three wrap styles to choose from for canvas prints. The mirrored wrap choice mirrors and extends the image to the sides of the canvas wrap (without losing any of the original artwork on the front). The majority of the time I would suggest this is the best choice. The other two options are a solid black wrap or white wrap. You can see a preview of each option when selecting wrap color.
After printing, the canvas is stretched over and secured to a wooden frame of 1.5" by 1.5" stretcher bars. The entire production process takes from 10 to 15 business days. Your artwork will arrive in sturdy packaging. The hanging wire will be attached and all hardware necessary to hang your canvas print will be included. Canvas prints are a great ready-to-hang option.
