As a sculptor, I
never undertook any formal training. I started sculpting in my early twenties,
working with the Russian sculptor, Lev Neznansky and it was then that I first discovered
my love for carving directly in wood. In the early 1990’s I worked with the Irish
sculptor, Cathy Carman where I learned the techniques of casting in bronze and first
started exhibiting in Dublin. I
subsequently lived and worked in San
Diego, California,
where I exhibited extensively. After returning to Dublin and after
a fifteen year career as an art gallery administrator I returned to working
full-time as an artist in 2011. Since then I have exhibited my work in various
galleries and art fairs in both Ireland and England. I
currently exhibit with Jorgensen Fine Art in Dublin and
with Nicholas Bowlby Fine Art and the Barbara Stanley Gallery in the U.K.
