His landscape are often centimetre- by-centimetre accounts of burgeoning, abundant nature. Based in Co Sligo, to bring himself closer to the landscape, he set up a mobile studio in a truck helpfully supplied by a sponsor and painted Truckscapes. As in this case, the paint-spattered interior of the truck often frames the view. Late winter snowfalls drew the artist out to record a world transformed. €2,000-4,000 (£1,739-3,478)
