My art is inspired, and strongly influenced by, the work of the Irish illuminators who created the spectacular art in the 'Book of Kells' and other manuscripts. While I strive to re-create the look and feel of those earlier works, I allow myself to explore subject matter which was foreign to those artists. The combination of old and new continues to hold my interest. I enjoy the process of experimentation and creation, and I hope that you enjoy the results.more
