Art has always been a passion of mine and something I excelled at from a young age. For me each piece from concept to creation, the journey though sometimes arduous is always rewarding.
I spend my time between the West of Ireland, where I love the rugged scenery and Hampshire.
I have appeared in two editions of an independent publishers book 'The Artist Eye' where in one edition, I am proud to say, my artwork was selected to be the front cover. I have exhibited in Galway and Kerry in Ireland as well as with the pop up gallery 'That Gallery'.
I have recently taken up tutoring where I get great enjoyment helping other artists on their journey.
I am really excited to be part of Open Studios this year where I hope more of the public will get to enjoy what I have created.
