About The Artwork

I'm always inspired by the gathering of people to enjoy themselves playing music. I try to capture the energy created here by the music and the interaction between the players. These works began when I spent a week in hospital some years ago and differ a lot from my color works in how I approach them. They developed without any conscious thought and became a means of keeping myself sane. Since then I have gone back and forth to them and become almost obsessed with them for short periods of time. Sometimes, nowadays, I have a theme in mind before I start. Sometimes they just evolve and I can see afterwards the influences that directed my pen. A lot of the time I begin with random shapes and I just try to balance and design them until I’m happy with the outcome. I enjoy not being too serious and allowing the shapes to evolve into birds, trees, people or just pure abstraction. I find the work exciting because I don’t put any constraints on myself when I’m working on them and I find them therapeutic although I feel almost driven as soon as I begin.

I was born in London and spent the first 20 years of my working life as an illustrator/visualizer for working for leading London advertising agencies. I worked on the accounts of companies such as British Airways, Cadbury’s, B.P. etc. and was part of award-winning creative teams while working for Saatchi & Saatchi and other top agencies. I left advertising in 1992 to follow my dream of working as a painter in Donegal. I now live in Ardara, the birthplace of my late father, and my paintings are inspired by the people and landscape around me.
