I’m a visual artist from Co.Tipperary. In 2008 I obtained my Honours Degree in Fine Art Painting from Limerick School of Art and Design where I achieved Awards from the Hunt Museum, Revenue Commissioners, shortlisted for the “RDS Students Art award”, the “Rose Project” at the Lab, “Cosc” and RDS Travelling Exhibition.
I work predominately in the medium of paint. The journey of making a painting makes me complete knowing that this is what I want to do most in life. I love the process and play with mediums, not knowing what the outcome will be, starting the painting with a vague idea and atmosphere of what I want the work to look like but this changes during the process. Mostly the painting derives from my personal memory of the environment, atmosphere and place. I allow the paint to dictate the outcome and process, in a way each painting is a new investigation into new possibilities.
