Hi Guys,
Those Who like my work will be pleased to hear that I have
updated my website and there are loads of new paintings in my gallery
page on the website. For those who are unfamiliar with my work - I am
a 36 year old (b1971) Expressionist/Realist painter and writer, living
and working in Dublin.
My controversial and confrontational work centers on **** self-
****traits, ****ographic paintings and text based identity art. But I
have also painted many beautiful female ****traits, landscapes, still-
life's and evocative abstractions.
I have been painting seriously since the age of 10. I left school at
16 in order to pursue my art full time. At the age of 18 without any
scholastic qualifications, I was accepted into art college on the
basis of exceptional talent. However at the time I did not find art
college suited me and I stayed only a year. But since then I have
attended many life drawing and life painting class in the National
College of Art in Dublin.
I have had 5 solo exhibitions in Dublin between 1994-2002. My two solo
exhibitions in the Oi sin Gallery in Dublin were widely reviewed in
most Irish newspapers and I was interviewed numerous times on Irish
television. I have sold over e37,200 worth of art - the highest price
payed for one of my works was e10,478, though most of my work has sold
for around e900.
I deliberately work in a number of styles and a variety of mediums,
since I thrive on experimentation. Much of my work is based upon found
images in magazines and on television which I expressively interpret
in my work. Most of my paintings are executed on Arches or Fabiano
300lb watercolor paper, and is small to medium scale. I have painted
over 2,200 paintings (oils, acrylics, watercolors, pastels and
collages) and created over 2,150 finished drawings. My work has been
influenced by Picasso, Biscuit, Schnabel, Schiller, and Freud.
Please check out my website which contains 230 of my paintings and
drawings from 1987-2007, a detailed introduction to my work, an
extensive outline biography also written by me, and a collection of
newspaper reviews and writings on my art.
