3 x 3 - Group Exhibition in Newbridge

I will have some work included in a group exhibition that opens this thursday in Newbridge, Co. Kildare. The show runs until June 17th, so if you are in the area do drop in.

 

The exhibition is called 3x3 and is being held as part of the June Festival which takes place in the town. It includes 3 artists from Newbridge, 3 from Kildare and 3 from outside Kildare.....they are:

3 from Newbridge; Mauve Mulcaghy (watercolour); Elanor Swan    (ceramics) Eamonn Keenan  (oils)

3 from Kildare;  Brian O'Loughlin (bog oak); Annette Mc Cormick (bronze);Margret Becker (etching/print)

3 from Ireland; Padraig Mc Caul (Oil); Laurence O' Toole (oil/acrylic); Brock Butler  (multi media) 

 

The exhibition is being held in a 250sq m. vacant unit opening on to the main street in Newbridge and backs onto the Courtyard shopping centre, which is right beside the WhiteWater Shopping Centre.

'Still Lives' moves to Dungarvan for 5 weeks

'Still Lives: Sky View'; 80x80cms, Oil & Wax on Linen

After a successful run in the Dalkey Heritage Centre, my current exhibition 'Still Lives' moves to the Old Market House Arts Centre in Dungarvan, Co.Waterford for a 5 week run.

The exhibition will run from May 18th to June 23rd. It will include some new pieces that were not part of the Dalkey show, including 'Sky View' (pictured here).

Thanks to everyone who visited the show in the Dalkey and for all the wonderful feedback - and especially to those who bought some of the new paintings!

'A Still day, West Cork'

Comedian Tommy Tiernan dropped in on the Wednesday morning and fell in love with one of the bigger pieces 'A Still Day, West Cork'. Unfortunately (typically!) it was already sold and destined for a good home in London! Maybe next time.

'Mists Come Down, Beara'; 50x50cms, Oil & Wax on Linen

Keep an eye out for the Phoenix Magazine later this week when they will be including a special feature on the state of the Art sector in Ireland. I get a small mention plus an image published.
