May 2021
Delighted to be back showing my paintings on Merrion Square East from this Sunday. Thanks to all who purchased from me and kept me going with commissions during the lockdown.
Time out sort of suited me. I played around with sculptures for the first month or two. I am a collector of interesting off- cuts and throw-a-way objects. I then just gardened and painted. I find one feeds the other for me.
I have been developing work towards holding an Exhibition later this year and I was delighted Fingal County Council have awarded me a bursary in this regard. The ideas and thoughts around the exhibition have unconsciously seeped into all my work and especially the paintings.
