ART SERVICES
COMMISSIONED / CUSTOM ART WORK
“I specialise in creating unique commissioned artworks that capture personal stories. Working in watercolour and acrylic, I offer two styles: delicate, representational pieces from photographs, and bold, contemporary abstracts. My watercolours reflect the emotion of subjects—weddings, pets, portraits, or landscapes—while my acrylics are tailored to spaces and styles. Clients collaborate on size, palette, and mood, ensuring each piece is striking and personal. Whether celebrating a milestone, honouring a loved one, or adding a centrepiece to your home, my aim is to craft art that resonates and becomes truly meaningful.”
SCHOOL ART PROJECTS : TAP TRAINED ARTIST FOR COUNTY KERRY
Teacher-Artist Partnership (TAP) is a unique Department of Education and Skills initiative for supporting and enhancing arts in education. For the last six years, I have delivered a wide range of artistic projects, TAP and BLAST, in both primary and post-primary schools across County Kerry. The program is a fully funded initiative in which participating teachers and artists collaborate and work together in order to deliver a creative school project from start to finish across the academic year. These creative projects are made possible thanks to funding and support from The Arts in Education / Tralee Education Centre, and the Kerry County Council.
ADULT ART CLASSES
“As a beginner, you’ll discover the joy of acrylic painting in a relaxed, supportive setting. I’ll introduce you to essential materials and techniques, sharing how paint responds to light and shadow, while encouraging confidence and creativity. Each class offers not only a fun social outlet but also the reward of leaving with your own completed artwork. With small group sizes, the atmosphere stays personal and encouraging. Beyond teaching, I design custom abstract acrylic paintings in collaboration with clients, tailoring size, palette, and mood to create vibrant, contemporary works that reflect both style and emotion.”
KIDS ART CAMPS
“Our kids’ art camps in Killorglin, run with fellow artist Darragh, give children a chance to explore creativity in a fun, supportive environment. Through watercolours, acrylics, mixed media, and murals, kids are encouraged to experiment, play, and express themselves freely. Camps are tailored to different ages and abilities, with a focus on learning through play and discovery. Seeing kids take pride in their creations makes each camp worthwhile, while the friendships, laughter, and colourful memories formed along the way make the experience truly special.”
PRIVATE EVENTS : ‘PAINT AND SIP’
“I offer private bookings for special occasions such as hen parties and birthdays, providing all painting materials and meeting groups at a suitable location. After greeting and setting up, we work step-by-step on a custom painting designed for your event. These sessions are always a hit, offering a creative, social experience where everyone leaves with their own artwork. Beyond parties, I also run small-group classes that provide a relaxed, supportive environment. Each participant enjoys a fun, hands-on session and the satisfaction of taking home a finished painting.”
PUBLICLY FUNDED ART EVENTS
“Over the past few years, I’ve been delighted to take part in socially engaging, public art projects in Killorglin. Highlights include the ‘Misneach Mural’ and ‘Peggy’s Angels’ in Library Place. “Misneach” meaning bravery, offered up a gigantic cubed canvas, displayed in the centre of the town. Peggy’s Angels supplied infinite creative possibilities in the form of two huge eight-foot-tall angel sculptures. Both projects celebrated diversity, creativity and inclusion for all.
More recently, in June 2025, I participated in the Cruinniú Late - Teen event at The Fishery, Killorglin alongside Darragh Kinch & Donal Moroney. These experiences felt so rewarding: watching teens discover artistic expression, supporting their creative energy, and contributing to visible, youth‑centred artworks in the town.
FUNDED PUBLIC ART EVENTS
Over the past couple of years, I’ve been thrilled to take part in some engaging public art projects in Killorglin aimed at teenagers and young people.
Some of the standout projects have been the ‘Misneach Mural’ and ‘Peggy’s Angels’ on Library Place. These bold sculptural murals, painted in collaboration with local youth, celebrate themes of courage and community—“misneach” meaning bravery—and brought many emerging young artists into public art for the first time.

In addition to my representational work, I create custom abstract acrylic paintings tailored to suit individual spaces and styles. These vibrant, textured pieces are designed in collaboration with clients, allowing for input on colour palette, size, and mood. My approach to abstraction results in artworks that are both contemporary and deeply personal.
COMMISSIONED / CUSTOM ART WORK
I specialise in creating unique, commissioned artworks that bring personal stories and special moments to life. Working in both watercolour and acrylic, I offer two distinct styles: delicate, representational paintings based on photographs, and bold contemporary abstract pieces. My watercolour work captures the emotion and character of each subject - whether it’s a wedding memory, a beloved pet, a family portrait, or a meaningful landscape.
Alongside this, I paint bespoke abstract acrylic paintings to complement individual spaces and unique styles. Clients are invited to collaborate on elements such as size, palette, and mood, resulting in artworks that are not only visually striking but deeply personal, carrying the vision and emotion of the client.
Whether you’re celebrating a milestone, honoring a loved one, or adding a meaningful centrepiece to your home, my ambition is to make art that resonates on a personal level, transforming provided imagery into beloved, meaningful art.

ADULT ART CLASSES
-
As a beginner, you will learn the basics of acrylic painting and work confidently in a relaxed and uninhibited environment. The class will be introduced to the painting materials and techniques used by myself and other professional artists, as well as understand how paint functions in various lights and shadows.
As well as a positive social outlet and fun experience, at the end of each class, you can expect to come away with your very own painting. These art classes run in small groups and allow for a fun, learning environment. In addition to my representational work, I create custom abstract acrylic paintings tailored to suit individual spaces and styles.

PRIVATE ART EVENTS : “PAINT & SIP”
-
I offer private bookings for special occasions such as hen parties and birthdays. Depending on the circumstances, I meet the group at a suitable location, and I also provide all the necessary painting materials. When I arrive on site I meet and greet with the party, set up the area for painting and we can then spend our time working on a custom step-by-step painting for your event/occasion. This is always a hit with my clients, as they not only get to have fun but also get to take home their very own painting.
