I was born in Limerick, Southern Ireland, where I spent my childhood. I moved to England in 1972, and lived in London and Wiltshire, Prior to moving to Ilfracombe in 2002. I love the seaside atmosphere and social scene.

I’ve had a great love for sketching and painting since I was a child and I love working with my hands.
I work mainly in pastels, charcoal and watercolours. I major in the human form, my work includes nudes and clothed subjects in various scenes.
