Some new work - exploring circular compositions (tondo) can be challenging but worthwhile as it presents interesting challenges.
I’m not a big Bluesky user but I do appreciate the positivity.

Statement from Illustrators Ireland on genAI. Any writer or musician worth their salt would care enough about their own work to avoid the use of genAI images. Damaging other workers in the arts for short-term gain is incredibly selfish and hugely disappointing.

My work examines loss and memory - moving from representative work, I meditatively make marks/brushstrokes to find the form.
I started painting at night while caring for a family member. While exhausting work, painting help me return to finding new way of communicating/reflecting.
