ABOUT

I am a visual artist, originally from Limerick, now living in Galway on the West Coast of Ireland. 

​

Following a couple of decades working as an arts educator, I re-engaged with my own arts practice in 2019, working consistently in establishing myself as an emerging artist.

​

The main sources for my work are in the observations and occurrences of daily life, in particular the exploration of colour and pattern.  I like to use everyday materials and domestic processes to respond to these daily events, therefore I very often incorporate found and used/recycled textiles, paint, collage and stitch in my work.

The co-existence of various media in my art gives me a sense of ease. 

​

Alongside my own art, I teach design, graphics, textile printing, embroidery & collage techniques

to adult learners in Galway City.

I have a husband, three daughters and two cats.
