I had the lucky pleasure to take portraits of the amazingly talented artist Maarten Schaddelee during a recent portrait session with the also wonderfully talented musician Paul O’Brien. Maarten is Paul’s neighbour and invited us to cross the road to his fantastic home and garden to take promotional portraits of Paul for his upcoming tour in Germany this fall. When we arrived in Maarten’s yard, my jaw dropped to the ground. Maarten’s marble and wood sculptures galore all throughout their oceanfront garden! Absolutely beautiful! If you haven’t heard of Maarten, please check out his site as I don’t think I can put into words the talent he has…and as for Paul….drop by the Irish Times Pub each Friday and Sunday to have a listen as you won’t be disappointed!
