Hello and welcome to my web site which features my work over the last few years and tells you a little about me.
My site is currently being developed so please bear with me as it develops.
First of all let me tell you a little about myself. Although born in Ennis I am living in Roscrea and my artistic career has only recently started to bloom. I have always been fascinated by creativity but everyday commerce lead me down a different path, that of a Banker.
I retired from this in 1995 and was then able to focus on my neglected artistic streak.
I am inspired by that which surrounds me, I use the landscape and my own experiences as muses for my work. I work in sculpture using bog Oak, Yew ,Pine, Deal, Elm Sweet Chestnut as well as Stone such as Marble and Limestone.
I also use paint, drawing and mixed media to convey my reactions to the environment. I am mainly self taught, but I am always eager to learn more so I attend workshops to learn techniques as well as draw inspiration.
