I live and work in Dublin.

I have worked in different mediums over the years including, textiles, art stamp design, oil and acrylic painting. Bold shapes and colours have always fascinated me. When travelling I choose countries that offer vibrant colours, be it women dressed in saris or vegetables and spices in markets. When seeking out art work I look for artists like Richter, Jackson Pollock, Miro, Kandinsky.

My current work is inspired by photographic images I have taken of old metals like decaying gates or electrical boxes which have a history shown by way of markings made by humans or ageing by climate. Working on these photographs with post photographic processes I create original, abstract, colourful images. Unfortunately not all metals yield interesting images. Some offer up their potential early, others are more secretive and need to be teased out. Over time I have developed antennae which draw me to objects that yield possibilities.

My images are printed with archival pigments on Hahnemuhle fine art based lustre paper, framed with archival materials according to accepted archival methods.

I have exhibited at The Open Windows Gallery, The Doorways Gallery, Ranelagh Arts Festival Exhibitions, Halftone Print Fair , St Philip’s Church Exhibition.

Two of my prints have been bought for the OPW collection.
