A fleeting shadow on Errigal caused by the passing clouds.

It is the tallest peak of the Derryveagh Mountains and the tallest peak in County Donegal. Errigal is also the most southern, steepest and highest of the mountain chain, called the "Seven Sisters" by locals.

Errigal is well known for the pinkish glow of its quartzite in the setting sun. It is repainted continually , it's colour and appearance, by the constant passing clouds.

Another noted quality is the ever-changing shape of the mountain depending on what direction you view it from.

Born in Hereford, educated in Cardiff and London, I am a professional contemporary artist, working mostly in oil and acrylics. I am based in Donegal, Ireland and Derry, NI.  

I originally trained as a professional Medieval Historian and then worked in Secondary Education for almost two decades until my life took an unexpected turn. On 29th February 2012 I was involved in a car accident which led to me developing  PTSD and having a breakdown. My emotional recovery was long and exhausting and is still ongoing. Art was an essential part of that process and still is. I have been a professional artist since 2013, part-time until the summer 2016 when I became a full-time professional artist.

I paint most days.  My work focuses on light and colour, whether I paint rural landscapes, urban streets, seascapes or figurative work. I like to paint people walking around in their everyday lives, painting moods, anticipations, and atmospheres, trying to express presence and pathos. I notice things that others miss. I am fascinated by details and relationships.

In my work, I am drawn to light and shadows and how they shape our emotions. I remember visiting the South of France as a teenager and being mesmerized by the dazzling light, I have been attempting to capture that excitement about light in my paintings ever since. I aim to make people look at the ordinary and see the extraordinary beauty in it.
