This was a tough one for me but  I enjoyed it a lot. This was a small project working with the Residents Association at Richmond Cottages in Summer hill Dublin 1. We chatted for a few weeks about what we could do for the commission. It was decided and agreed by the residents to do this picture of Irish Writer Brendan Bhean.

Its been quite some time since I painted a portrait and Ive never painted on of this scale.
Measuring approx 9×6 Meters High.
It took me a while to get the face I wanted or was happy with. Ots of frustration over the few days but I was happy in the end. I owe a huge thanks to Brian the house owner and the man who organised the scaffolding, allowing me those extra few days.

Also a big thanks to Mick Raferty and the local residents association. Lastly I owe Tommy a big thanks. He was helping me out and cracking jokes for the duration.

This was fun. Im looking forward to another opportunity for a large one like this.

SPACER WATERFORD WALLS 2018

Was very lucky and thankful to get asked at the last minute to paint a SPACER at this years Waterford Wall Street Art Festival.

This painting was sponsored by the Blackrock Observator for Space week 2018. Space Week is Ireland’s newest national STEM week, in parallel with World Space Week, taking place every first week in October.

Space Week is brought to you by CIT Blackrock Castle Observatory with the support of Science Foundation Ireland and ESERO Irelan

I also owe a big thanks to the guys at Waterford Walls. Cheers to Edel, Gabe, Alsion and AJ and of course the volounteers. They made everything very simple and easy so I could spend more my time painting and meeting other artists. www.waterfordwalls.ie
And finally a big thanks to the guys at the Fitzwilton Hotel in waterford and for sponsoring the wall.

Big thanks to James, Cliff and John, and the lads on the site for the help. Enjoyed doing this one.

Delighted to be selected from 50 artists around Europe to the the Artist in Residence for the ESA at the Living Planet Symposium in May this year. I got to work closley with Dr paul Fisher, D Anna Maria Trofaler and the rest of the Climate office team ending with a number of stencial art paintings at the living Planet Symposuim in Milan.

The Climate office webiste says: Staging the art exhibition during the event aims to  draw the scientific community’s attention to ESA’s Climate Change Initiative and the satellite-derived climate data records it generates.
