My philosophy in life in general and more especially in my work is:
"to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield."

"Artwork Blending The Boundaries
Between Imagination and Reality,

Shaping The True Beauty Of
A Timeless Ireland...and Beyond"

Dear Lover of Fine Art,
Imagine if you would walking with me along the coast of the Inishowen Peninsula in Co.Donegal, where nestling between the sea's water and verdant earth stands the charming town of Buncrana.

The dewy air is crisp and clean with fragrant breezes...seemingly blowing only across this matchless domain of the Emerald Isle, and no where else.

No matter the season, nature here is always at her calming best, with even her tempests providing sanctuary for the human spirit.

It's in this breathtaking refuge of life and scenic wonder that Stephen finds the greatest inspirations for his life's calling - creating vibrant original contemporary Irish Art full of both charm and grandeur.

Capturing the very essence of the Irish soul...it's beauty, it's pathos and even it's unique and enchanting whimsy.

This preserve of nature's gifts is not only reflected in his creations of land and seascapes, but in his rich and varied portrayals of the stylised human form, as well as his imaginative depictions of animals, fish and still-life.

Stephen not only paints what he sees, but what he feels is the vital essence of what nature and life are trying to express.
