I love spending time outdoors in the natural beauty of Connemara ever since I was a child growing up in Roundstone village – an artists paradise.
These paintings are my interpretation of familiar sights- mostly of Connemara, Ireland – seascapes, harbours, moonlit landscapes, cottages and water lilies dotting the small lakes on bog roads. I also enjoy travelling to paint in other countries and have had successful exhibitions in Ireland and the US.
It was a privilege to paint in the Studio of Scottish artist Douglas Anderson, Royal Painter, for 4 years – total immersion in the Old Master techniques in drawing and oil painting. I believe I could not have a better mentor.
I’m a member of Visual Artists Ireland, the South Boston Arts Association and The Design & Crafts Council of Ireland.
I’m delighted that some of my paintings were shown on RTE’s popular Nationwide programme as part of Carna Walking Club, Spaisteorí Iorras Aithneach feature.
