| About the Artist |
I am a contemporary figurative artist, often working with the issues of women in mind....am glad to have done the ' Arklow Women at Work ' ...a study of some of the women who are part of life in Arklow in co wicklow where I live. I have also done a childhood series ...from my own childhood...(all can be seen on my web).
Other than that I paint anything that is on my mind or in my experience at the time...including political tributes...portraits, landscapes in the mind and so on. |
