Can anyone identify this image/artist?

    Hi all. Firstly, sorry if this is not the appropriate forum to post this. A friend of mine fell in love with a table mat she saw in another friend's house, with the image below on it. I'd love to try to find if it's possible to get more for her.

    I tried searching in Google Images but no luck. I'm also having trouble identifying the artist's name, it's something like Michael Wuidade?

    Does anyone know this artist or recognise the image? Is it possible to use this image and recreate on new table mats?

    Might it be: http://michaelleonardartist.com/ Style not quite the same, but he does seem to have done some Impressionist work.

    The Guinness would suggest an Irish context.

    Where did you get he image?

    How could you possibly think they are the same artist lol.

    The artist is Michael McDade he does all that paddywhackery stuff.

    Oh my god! Thank you so much. I found the painting here but the auction ended last year: https://www.rosss.ie/lot-details/michael-mcdade/guinness-pub-interiors/91882/.

    Does anyone know how I could possibly buy this? Are there any stores in Dublin or websites you'd suggest I check?

    Your Google is as good as mine I'm afraid. Try eBay maybe. Or get a photograph/scan of the table mat your friend has (scan would be best) and they can make a print for you.

    Looks like I was able to place an offer for the most recent buyer and they've accepted :) Thank you so much for your help.
