WELCOME TO THE HOME OF JOULE FINE ART
AND THE PAINTINGS OF TERRY MCILRATH
I have been gifted with "boundless creativity." It is difficult to direct and impossible to control. My paintings are constantly changing as my life is. I never know the significance of the new images until they have occurred in several paintings and even then I can't always realize the source. Check out all the paintings and visit often to see what is new.
I hope you enjoy looking at my work. I have been an artist forever and I am grateful to have been able to spend my life doing what I love to do. Artists are the guardians of the human spirit. Through the work of poets, painters and dancers we preserve and maintain qualities such as love, beauty, truth, honesty, compassion and community which form the foundation upon which civilizations are built.
