I am very lucky that people support me in creating art. This is a Dublin collector’s group of my works. I’m delighted every time someone adopts some of my ink drawings. Here’s a group of works available now as well as some recent commissions

I love creating art. I think you can see that joy in the works. It’s fantastic that my drawings make people happy & a great pleasure when I’m sent photos of the framed drawings in new homes! I’m really grateful for that!

Free Spirit (2022)

It’s important to me that art is accessible. I think it’s a good thing that kids live with original art in their home - & that they are inspired by it. A surprising number of people (to me) buy my work for their kids

Dreaming Woman (2022)

Dreaming was a key part of storytelling in early medieval Ireland. In dreaming one had access to the Otherworld (or as I would call it, the imagination). The Otherworld was the land of the gods or lucht na Sidhe

Virgo (2022)

Here the inspiration was the manuscripts of the later Middle Ages. Inspiration comes from the Hiberno Norman manuscripts. My mother is a FitzGerald after all

Love Bird (2022)

Another commission where I worked with the client to express emotion through their favourite animals - swans! One is about metamorphosis & freedom. The other has humour & is down to earth.

In the Garden (2022)

The Magic Hare (2022)

Hares have a big part in Celtic lore & mythology. They are animals that transform into a Celtic goddess. As you can see here I’ve added in ideas of Earth, sky, constellations & biology.

The Irish mythological idea of transformative animals figures large here.

The Forest Dreaming (2022)

Woodland was rare, even in the Early Medieval Period, so was imbued with magical qualities or being put under a spell. Here a woman has fallen into a floating sleep below some ornate & ancient trees.

Drawing of a Pink Elephant in a Boat (2022)

There aren’t any pink elephants in Irish mythology (as far as I know). But the boat he’s floating along on is based on my favourite museum object

A nod to the nostalgic song by the great Irish musician & poet Thomas Moore.

The Beauty of Flight (2022)

If the early medieval Irish had had access to the vibrant inks I do, I can tell you that their manuscripts would have been beyond psychedelic!
