Meet the artists from the next duo exhibition in our gallery this Thursday 16th July from 6pm

Meet the Artists of 'Moods of Nature' this Thursday 16th July from 6pm -7.30pm in Myself and Georgia will be there with light refreshments and a smile!

I've always avoided going to these kinds of things myself for fear of knowing nothing about art so if that's you too, we're in the same boat. There's no pretense here, just two very nice people proud of making lovely things.

We hope to see you there!

I spent my morning rearranging and adding to my display at West Cork Collective ahead of the opening of our Winter Members Exhibition which open this coming Friday!
My connection to the land is already strong, yet I found myself way down the Beara Peninsula on Christmas Day for a few days spent in a cabin and exploring the raw beauty of the area. It spoke so deeply to me that I came back to my studio and brought into the present 7 new pieces inspired by that journey. Come to the exhibition and you can see 3 of them plus the ones now on my stand in the shop. Manchán has left us such a gift, it is vital that his legacy is heard and embodied.
That we remember to live with the land, not take from it, to listen to her whisperings and speak gently back.
