You know when you get some good news, like really good news? Well, very soon I will have some new contemporary Irish art for sale because I’ve been awarded an arts bursary from the Women’s Irish Network!
I am thrilled to be selected as a 2020 Arts Bursary Award winner from the Women’s Irish Network (WIN) in conjunction with the UK Irish Embassy.
This news has just lifted me up normally I’m quite organised with what’s happening within my work but due to Covid that security disappeared. So to have this boost is just unreal plus I’m really proud to be associated with an organisation where the onus is focused on women supporting women- what a great platform to be growing with- 2020 is finally turning around for me!
See below to hear me chat about receiving the award (sorry about the sound quality!) and what I hope to do with the award.
This award will fund the making of new paintings & allow me to extend my studio space. I am also hoping to get some help with running my website and expanding my online presence in general because one thing Covid is teaching me is that we are all far more virtually connected now.
