NZ is now part of the world series, as Liam has produced several shows and provided a platform for over 70 artists through 2023-24. Express yourself Life is about the moment. We are free to express ourselves. Making our mark helps us to find our place within the moment. The trick is to stay there. Liam studied at the London Institute and Brighton College of Art and Design in the UK. He worked in the design and illustration industry before packing his paint brush and moving to New Zealand in 2001. Wasting no time he set about creating and exhibiting across Auckland and even dabbled in running his own high street art gallery on Waiheke Island. Auckland has become Liam’s spiritual home, while he continues to find inspiration around most corners of New Zealand. From Rangitoto to the city, chaos to sustainability, following his heart, passions and observations. It’s all about the moment. Liam can usually be found painting in his garden studio in Laingholm, and he wouldn’t swap it for the world! Liam is on the Art Commission Ltd NZ advisory committee
