Sue Bryan’s Emerald Isle Images

Born and raised in Dublin, Sue Bryan moved to New York City in 1989. It was during her time away from home that she developed her passion for drawing with pen and ink. Inspired by turn-of-the century photographs of Ireland she came across in antique shops and second-hand bookstores, she discovered her fascination with the elegant cities and small towns depicted in these nostalgic images. Her attention to detail is such that she sometimes spends months working on a picture, getting lost in the tiny brickwork of an old facade. Her drawings are reproduced as Limited Edition Fine Art Prints on specially treated heavyweight watercolor paper, delivering an exceptional image with the look and feel of authentic character. It is difficult to fully appreciate the detail of Sue’s drawings on this website, so please take the time to view a selection of close-up ‘slices’ of her images.

All Limited Edition Prints are reproduced with archival inks on specially treated heavyweight watercolor paper using a revolutionary pigment based Ultra- ChromeTM printing process. As well as delivering an extremely high quality print, this technology offers the benefit of exceptional resistance to light and fading, providing an archival image that will last over a century.

Open Edition Prints are reproduced on specially treated heavy-weight matte paper with archival inks using the same process.

Each Limited Edition Print is hand-signed and numbered by the artist and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity.

Each print is professionally framed under glass in a variety of beautiful solid wood frames. Some prints are also available unframed and matted.
