I’m interested in developing a strong technical foundation in my work, with oil painting, etching, and various drawing methods all included in my landscape and portrait-based work. I’m interested in the immediate roughness and rawness of people and places. Current work is concerned with ‘home places’ and the experience of growing up and family life in Ireland. Old ruins and habitations fascinate me, which I research through visiting and photographing, before developing further through a variety of other media.
