Is a contemporary Irish painter based in her native home of Co. Kildare Ireland. She graduated from The National College of Art and Design, Dublin in 1984 upon studying fine art for five years.
Following her first solo show in The Lincoln Gallery Dublin, she moved to New York where she exhibited at the prestigious Kathryn Markel Gallery on W.57th Street. Her travels took her on to Portland, Oregon where she was heavily influenced by the vast and varied landscape.

After her time stateside she returned to Ireland where she is happiest and most fulfilled exploring the ever changing Irish landscape.
