'New Beginnings' Irish Oak, Framed Print
‘Field Studies’ ‘New Beginnings’ This is a limited-edition, fine art Giclée print of my original linocut of a broken branch from an old Irish oak tree, the sessile oak. This linocut is from my first collection ‘Field studies’ studies of native wild plants, flowers and trees drawn from life, from a meadow in Leitrim. The oak represents strenght, resilience and longevity and this piece ‘New Beginnings’ is about hope, a celebration of new beginnings and an openness to begin again. I hope that you will find a solution in my work if you are looking for a unique, 100% Irish, sustainable gift for the season ahead.

I have the pleasure of owning two stunning pieces of AMOR Botanical Art, a 'new beginnings' print and a beautiful cushion. The quality of the cushion and the work itself is spectacular. Anna Maries attention to detail within her work right through to the packaging and the customer service experience adds to the joy of purchasing and owning a piece of this collection. Would highly reccommend AMOR Botanical Art.

Hi, my name is Anna-Marie O’Rourke and I am a full time artist and designer from Leitrim.
I am delighted to introduce ‘Field Studies’ my first small collection of original botanical prints, fine art Giclée prints, cards and linen textile pieces. The collection is based on a series of original pen and ink drawings of a variety of species of native wild plants, drawn from life which are growing in a meadow at home.
I hope that my collection will share a sense of empathy with nature and a focus of attention on local biodiversity. With this work, I aim to create pieces which have a low impact on the environment and are sustainable.
My work is rooted in the Leitrim landscape where I was born and raised. I’ve always been interested in the small things in nature. I love to look at details, lichen growing on Hawthorn or tiny native plants which are often overlooked.
My parents come from small, low intensity, farming backgrounds in Leitrim. This method of farming which went back generations, was good for biodiversity. It instilled my passion for biodiversity and how we impact on it. I work from my small studio in Leitrim overlooking ‘Sliabh an Iarainn’ mountain.
I studied a BA Textile Design (Hons) at GMIT, Galway and a H.Dip Art Education for Teachers at LSAD, Limerick and I previously worked as an arts manager and art teacher. For me, supporting local businesses is important so I use quality suppliers local to me.
I hope that anyone looking for an original piece which is 100% Irish, made local and eco- friendly can find the perfect solution in my work.
If you are looking for a bespoke gift for Christmas, a birthday, engagement, wedding, new home or any occasion, I hope that you can find something in my first collection.
Where possible my packaging and materials are recycled, recyclable or compostable.
Thank you for supporting my small start up business.
