Almond Tree by David Quinn
David Quinn (Irish: Dáithí Ó Cuinn) (born 1970) is an Irish artist.
Quinn was born in County Galway and grew up in Sligo. He studied art at the National College of Art and Design in Dublin and painted there for a number of years after graduating. Following two years based in Clifden, County Galway he settled in County Mayo where he currently lives and works.
Quinn is best known for his atmospheric, figurative, landscape based paintings which draw on the Mayo countryside and its vernacular architecture and gardens. The Far Garden project was created as a means of presenting an ongoing body of similarly themed work.
Quinn's paintings are represented in Irish and international collections including The Irish Museum of Modern Art, The European Parliament, AIB and the Office of Public Works.
