Painting is something I have always loved and whilst I am essentially self taught I have taken many opportunities to study with professional artists and tutors to develop techniques and different perspectives. I work mainly in oils and enjoy painting portraits, landscapes, animals and, well, just about anything really. In fact, living in rural Ireland there are so many opportunities for inspiration from the natural world to the colourful characters and rich history.
I have exhibited across Ireland and probably my biggest event was the inclusion of my portraits of “Women of the 1916 Easter Rising” in the “Revolution 1916” exhibition at the Ambassador Theatre, Dublin for six months of 2016 as part of the National commemoration events.
All of my paintings on this site are for sale and if you would like to buy or commission a painting please feel free to contact me via the contact page.
