Graeme Callaghan
Inspired by my son Dylan, who passed on the 09.04.2021
I lost my son and best friend Dylan Callaghan on the 09.04.2021. I moved to France in the same year, a beautiful town called Eymet. I have been inspired to paint with the hope of my sons name to be remembered for years to come.
Dylan and I worked together in the financial services industry. He was only 24 when he passed, a terrible car accident at the entrance to the tunnel in San Pedro del Pinitar in Spain.
I feel that Dylan guides me in my art work. I sign all art in Dylan’s name. In a way I feel that he is painting with me.
I can get totally lost in a painting and think of nothing else whilst I’m working. I would recommend painting as a tool to help with grief. For a while, you can think of nothing else but your painting.
I move to Eymet with my wife Amanda and our two dogs, Ruby and Pearl. Amanda and the dogs have been a rock to me and I literally wouldn’t be here today without them.
Rest in Peace Dylan..
