I’m Returning to Art Source, RDS Dublin – 14th–16th November 2025

I’m delighted to share some exciting news – this November I’ll be returning to Art Source at the RDS in Dublin, running from the 14th to the 16th November. It’s always a highlight of my year to meet art lovers face-to-face, and this year I’m bringing something special: over 30 original artworks for sale, each one close to my heart.

You’ll find me at Stand J12 throughout the fair.

Much of my work continues to be inspired by the wild Atlantic coast, stretching from Donegal down through the west of Ireland. The misty headlands, the soft shifting light and the atmospheric surroundings of the Irish landscape have always fascinated me. Painting these places allows me to share not just what I see, but what I feel when I stand there – the salt air, the sense of timelessness, the drama and stillness all at once.

This year, I’ve also explored a new direction. Alongside my coastal scenes, I’ve created several vibrant abstract pieces inspired by elements from my own garden. The shapes, colours and rhythms of nature at home have opened up a fresh palette for me, adding a lively and personal dimension to my collection.

For me, Art Source isn’t just an art fair; it’s a chance to connect with people who are as passionate about art and the Irish landscape as I am. Whether you’re already familiar with my work or you’re discovering it for the first time, I’d love for you to stop by Stand J12, have a chat and see the new collection in person.

I can’t wait to return to Dublin and share these new pieces with you. If you’re visiting Art Source this November, please do come and say hello – you might even find a little piece of the Atlantic (or my garden!) to take home with you.
