Undercurrents
Spaces for stories to emerge and reveal themselves.
These mixed media pieces are made using encaustic wax, pigments and photography. Using the encaustic wax and pigments to build up layers and then adding a mix of my own photographs or found photography I create a space for stories to emerge.

Soft Days
Days when a sense of otherworldliness lingers in the air - when objects and thoughts can seem ill defined and elusive ,existing somewhere in between the foggy mist.
In Ireland 'It's a soft day' is an expression that is used to describe the weather and, in particular, a specific type of misty rain that is persistent, hazy and almost invisible that occurs on an overcast day that is neither warm nor cold.
Watercolour, photograph on tissue paper, encaustic and pigments mounted and framed
Peripheral Terrains
Peripheral Terrains is a series of pieces inspired by the edges of landscapes in and around West Cork and Kerry.
Each piece pays homage to the striking beauty of these places and speaks of the quiet and powerful contemplation that comes from being immersed in these landscapes.
Original photographs, encaustic, oil paint, pigments on board
