Since moving to the west of Ireland in 1989, I have developed an interest in watercolour painting and creative photography, particularly enjoying the play of light on field patterns, rock and water that seems so special in this region. I have a great love of wildlife & nature and conservation themes are a regular feature of my paintings.

I run various art projects in Dromindoora National School and work regularly with Enable Ireland, the Brothers of Charity, the Irish Wheelchair Association and local Mental Health Services as part of the Clare Arts Office Embrace Scheme for people with disabilities.

My landscapes and seascapes can be seen at the Inis Artists exhibitions but I also work to private commissions.
