I’m an Irish artist and teacher living and working in the beautiful seaside village of Ardmore Waterford. Inspired to pick up a brush 30 years ago, my interest and skills have taken me from attending that first class in Ireland through to training in Florence and eventually into a full-time career.

I’ve been teaching art for over 30 years and I enjoy this as much as creating my artwork.

I love my job and I’m constantly inspired by the landscapes and the warmth of the people where I live


December 2024

It’s finished.

I’ve wanted to paint The Meeting on the Turret Stairs forever. Frederic William Burton’s watercolour is iconic but I decided to paint it in oil. What a joy and a challenge but I loved it. I hope you love it too.

March 2025

I’m back to finishing a couple of portraits after a lovely long break.

I’m hoping to organise a workshop or two before the summer so…. watch this space.
