Sand portrait of Colin Farrell on Irish beach Credit: Sean Corcoran via Storyful
Oscar-nominated Colin Farrell is getting some artistic love from his homeland ahead of Sunday’s Academy Awards.
Ireland-based artist Sean Corcoran created a portrait of the Irish actor in the sand of an Irish beach – the same beach where scenes of The Banshees of Inisherin were filmed.
Farrell is nominated for Best Actor for his role in The Banshees of Inisherin, Martin McDonagh’s tragicomic tale of the end of a friendship. Farrell’s Pádraic is the one being broken up with by Brendan Gleeson’s Colm on their small Irish island in 1923.
