Meet The Artist
Childhood memories of exploring the jagged rocks of the Burren or watching the ebb and flow of the Atlantic Ocean, inform much of my work. A regular visitor to my native County Clare, these memories are continually revisited as I see new ways of capturing a constantly changing landscape, dependant on weather conditions and lighting.
Art took a back seat for some years as I first studied Business in college, married and raised three children. In 2014, I received my BA in Art & Design from GMIT, Galway. During my time there I became intrigued with light, shadows and reflections. These still have strong influences in my work today.
Previously working in oils, I have begun to explore new mediums and have developed a unique method of representing my ideas through the medium of Alcohol Ink. Their unpredictable nature allows me to investigate the push and pull I associate with both the limestone formations of the Burren and the force of the Atlantic Ocean.
During the inaugural Listowel Arts Festival in 2018, one of my works titled, Mullaghmore, was chosen by Artist and Illustrator, PJ Lynch, as ‘Best in Show’. Lynch states that this work succeeds in “purely abstract terms as much as a descriptive piece.”
I continue to challenge myself, investigating how I can further my artistic endeavors with this medium while still nurturing my beloved oils.
From September to June, I also facilitate Adult Art Classes inclusive of beginners to the more advanced. These classes are often considered therapeutic by many as well as educational in a fun and social way.
Introducing some new prints!
I've been looking forward to adding some new prints to my Open Archival Print Collection.
Dunguire Castle, Kinvara, Co Galway, is an iconic view and probably the most photographed castle in Ireland!

The power of The Atlantic Ocean should never be underestimated. It is something to be admired and demands respect, like all oceans.
