After graduating from NCAD I spent ten years working as a mural artist and specialist effects painter and interior designer in Ireland and abroad. The image below was created while on an Arts Council-funded residency to Crete, Greece and is part of the Lakkos project in Heraklion.
Mural in Lakkos area of Heraklion, Crete
Mural painting has a long tradition going back to Roman times. I have in the past painted murals and paint effects in homes, restaurants, bars and pubs, nightclubs and on the exterior of buildings. I am open to and welcome any enquiries here Below are old photos (of varying quality!) of some work I did many years ago.
Statue of Liberty Hand Mural
I have experience creating large scale murals both inside and outside on the exterior of buildings, on walls or in gardens, these can either be complex, detailed images, or more pared-down.
I’m also well-experienced in paint effects, such as faux marble, wood, faux painted plasterwork, mosaic and much more. As well as the above, I have completed hand-painted traditional sign-writing doing signs and lettering for various clients.
My skills with both hand-painting and using graphic design programs, means that I can, in consultation with my clients, come up with the perfect sketch, before embarking on the actual painting.
