Commissioned by Carlow County Council Biodiversity Action Plan 2026–2031
I’m honoured to share that I was selected as one of 30 artists commissioned to create an original artwork for the Co. Carlow Biodiversity Catalogue, part of Carlow County Council’s
Biodiversity Action Plan 2026–2031.
My painting „Treasure of Oak Park” celebrates nature, which I visit almost every day, admiring its inhabitants and the beauty of the greenery. I painted Oak Park Forest in my signature textured style, with layers of modelling paste and gold leaf.
The full collection of all 30 works will be exhibited in November 2026 — details to follow.
That makes this a double November for me: you will also find me at Art Source, RDS Dublin, Stand L28.
