AITO 2024 The Art in the Open this year was absolutely fantastic. It’s always one of the highlights of my year, but this time it felt especially magical. The weather was just perfect - sunny at Carne Beach and beautifully misty at Graiguenamanagh in County Kilkenny....

wet Summer Throughout the summer, my primary goal was to paint outdoors as often as I could. Unfortunately, the weather didn't always cooperate, and even on the occasional clear day, I struggled to get organized and head out to paint. Nevertheless, despite these...

Graiguenamanagh Graiguenamanagh had a plein air event in August, and we had good weather with clear skies. The sun made the village look so lovely, and I even won a bronze prize. I made two paintings and met many fellow plein air artists. I look forward to coming back...

Just had to share a little sneak peek of this year

Just had to share a little sneak peek of this year’s calendar with you! I’ve switched things up a bit and changed the format to suit my vertical paintings – you know how much I’ve been loving that way of working outdoors lately. It just feels so natural for capturing these scenes, doesn’t it?

Putting this together is always such a lovely process, looking back on some of my favourite spots and moments. If you’d like to grab a calendar for yourself or someone special, there’s a link in my bio. Hope you like how it’s turned out!

Hello, lovely people! Just a quick update: after an inspiring workshop in Dunmore East, I've come down with a little bug. Unfortunately, this means no new paintings to show for now.

With the festive season around the corner, I thought it would be a great time to remind you about my range of prints. They make for wonderful, heartfelt gifts, especially for anyone who cherishes our local scenes. If you're on the lookout for something special, have a look at my website. Link in bio 🌸

Courtown holds a special place in my heart. Whenever I'm unsure of where to paint next, I always find myself back in this familiar spot, easel in tow. There's something so familiar about capturing the reflections of boats and harbour buildings in the water, ever-changing yet so recognizable. It’s a place where I know exactly where to find the best reflections and that special sparkle on the water.

Another brilliant Wednesday out with the Gorey Urban Sketchers, this time at Courtown Harbour! These sketches each came together with just a single color, using water-soluble pencils to capture the essence of the scene. Nothing like a quiet moment by the harbour, pencil in hand. Already looking forward to next week's adventure. #artistlife #urbansketching #urbansketchers #courtownharbour #courtown #irishartists

I have a spot open for this Friday's Sip & Paint class, running from 7–9pm!
If you can't make it this week, there's also one space available for October 8th, where we'll be painting hay bales (swipe for the image).

Sip & Paint classes are relaxed and perfect for beginners. You'll follow along step-by-step as we create an acrylic painting together. I provide all the materials - canvas, brushes, paints, palettes - and a glass of wine with refreshments to keep things fun! Classes are small, just 8 students, so you'll get plenty of one-on-one time. It's €45 per person, and you'll leave with your finished piece at the end of the session.

Booking link in my bio.
