Does anyone know who painted this?? FH is in love with this painting (scary as it may be). It's hung in a bar in the city we always go to (Trinity Pub). I have been looking for the artist forever and can't seem to find it. Everytime we go in there we always ask the bartenders if they know who the artist is, and they never do. :( I would love to get this for him as a wedding gift (although it's NOT getting hung in our studio apt ). Any help or suggestions on how/where to find the artist of this would be appreciated...Thanks!!!
P.S. The painting is only on the top of the picture...the three men in the bar...the bottom is the actual Trinity Pub, I got it from their website, can't find the painting anywhere else@!
I've never seen it myself. But, I did e-mail Guinness to see if they knew. I will tell you if/when they get back to me. Why don't you call Trinity & ask to speak to the Mngr they might know.

Thank you so much...that's so nice of you. I'm thinking of doing that actually. I tried emailing the website, but it got sent back to me today. I've never had this hard of a time looking for a painting...Thanks so much. Amy

Re: Irish Brides or art enthusiasts
I've seen murals of that same painting in a bar/restaurant up here in the Bronx but I dont' know if that artist just did a rendition or is also the artist of the one you see in the city.
Ask to talk to the owner of the bar, maybe they'll know. Call during the day when the owner is most likely to be around.
I'll ask DH tonight - he may know too.

Re: Irish Brides or art enthusiasts
This is the answer I got back from Guinness:
Thank you for your recent email. I was able to open your attachment but unfortunately I don't have any information for you.
I have therefore taken the liberty of forwarding a copy of your email to my colleagues in our US office for attention and I am confident that they will be in contact in due course.
Kindest regards

Re: Irish Brides or art enthusiasts
This is from the US office
Did you try contacting the pub to see where they purchased the painting from? Maybe they can get in touch with the artist if it was done locally? I will pass the picture on to the marketing department in the meantime to see if anyone has any information.
Thank you,
