"Michael Ireland was born in New London, Connecticut in the fall of 1953. He has since set out on a devoted life with the need to express his feelings and experiences to others through the medium of transparent watercolor.

Working with watercolor presents itself in a challenging, spontaneous way that enables him to evoke a mood with a subtleness that continually invites another glance at his impressionistic work.

Capturing on paper the solitude and stillness of a subject in a single moment presents a means in which the viewer and artist become involved through a shared experience."
