'Galway Hooker' Framed Ceramic Art by Charlie Mahon – Medium
'Galway Hooker' is an original piece of framed ceramic art by Irish artist Charlie Mahon. Charlie sketches every day, and each of these pieces begins life in his sketchbooks. The design is cut out of clay, hand-painted with glazes and oxides, fired, and framed, so this is a true one-of-a-kind piece.
The Galway hooker is the traditional sailing boat native to Galway, and one Charlie has a real love for. Here it sails across hand-painted waves with its bold red sail and dark hull. This is the medium size.
Looking for a gift that nobody else will have? It's a unique piece of Irish art for a new home, a birthday, or anyone who loves something a little different.
