Getting Arty For Greystones Cancer Support

Artist Peter Donnelly with GCS’s Amanda Lawless MON9MAR26

aunching this morning at their La Touche Place HQ, local artist Peter Donnelly has created exclusive Wicklow landmark cards for Greystones Cancer Support.

Coming in a boxed set of 10 cards, these beautiful cards boast paintings of two much-loved beauty spots.

Namely, The Cliff Walk and Glendalough.

Young McGowan caught this morning’s love-in, to go along with GCS’s wise words…

Bring the magic of the Garden of Ireland to your correspondence with this exclusive boxed collection by award-winning local illustrator Peter Donnelly. Featuring 10 premium cards, this set captures the beauty of the Bray–Greystones Cliff Walk and the timeless serenity of the Glendalough Round Tower.

These cards are unique and exclusive to Greystones Cancer Support, making them a truly special way to support our work. Each card is left blank for your own message — a perfect choice for any occasion and a beautiful gift of local art.

Local artist Peter Donnelly created the artwork for both cards. Widely known for his children’s books The President’s Glasses and The Dead Zoo, he is also the illustrator behind many Irish brands including Keogh’s crisps and Moo’d ice cream.

Peter spoke about his inspiration for the pieces. “I was delighted to create these cards for Greystones Cancer Support. The organisation does amazing work and has been extremely supportive to me personally in recent years.

“I decided to capture two local treasures in the Wicklow area. The first, Glendalough, needs no explanation. A haven of natural beauty and solitude which many people from Greystones are familiar with and a place to ground oneself anytime of the year.

“The second, a view towards the Greystones-Bray Cliff Walk. Like many, I’ve spent many summer mornings enjoying this wonderful trek and no better time to feature this treasure considering that shamefully a simple view is all we have these days.

“It’s no coincidence that I’ve chosen two walks. Fresh air and light exercise are fundamental to our wellbeing and for me as an artist they offer endless inspiration.

“Let’s hope our Cliff Walk opens soon so that it may long continue…”

Bada! And it’s just €12.50 for the box of ten, available at the GCS centre.
