Amaya Rourke
Painter of storm-lit skies and storm-tossed seas.
Astrology for Creatives.
I am a painter living on the Dingle Peninsula, where Atlantic weather shapes everything. Making art through the view of a Skylight while I live with chronic illness, has drawn my attention to the storms and the stars of the sky above. Since 2016 I’ve used traditional astrology as a tool for living a spiritually grounded life. Now I develop practical astrological tools to help creative practitioners understand their process, establish workable rhythms, and make thoughtful use of the time available to them.
From Skylight Studio
My first painting collection of skyscapes and seascapes emerges through a strange, heretical, layered mixed-media process. Built slowly while responding to light, weather, and texture. Original paintings and prints are expected in 2027.
