Oct 2019: London Artists Open studios

Step Inside My Studio for London Artists Open Studios

I’m thrilled to be opening my studio doors as part of London Artists Open Studios. This annual event is such a wonderful opportunity for the public to step behind the scenes and experience how artists work.

My practice is rooted in abstract expressionism. I draw inspiration from the Irish coastline, exploring movement, memory, and energy through layered mark-making. I’m looking forward to welcoming you into my creative space. During your visit, you’ll discover my finished works and the story behind them.

My Painting Practice

I work primarily with oil paint, oil bar, and colour pencil, building up and breaking down surfaces to explore contrasts between control and chance. There’s a physicality to my process—it’s layered, often raw, and always evolving.

My current work includes two main series: abstract landscapes influenced by the rugged Irish coast (inspired during an art residency), and a newer floral series exploring colour, rhythm, and form more playfully. You’ll find contemporary paintings, limited edition prints, and original abstract art all available to view—and purchase—during the open studio.

What You’ll Discover at My Open Studio

As part of London Artists Open Studios, visitors to my space at Delta House Studios can expect:

🎨 A behind-the-scenes look at my working process
🖼 Original artwork and fine art prints available for purchase
🌸 New work from my floral series
🧠 Insight into my techniques and materials, from early sketches to finished canvas
💬 Space for conversation—I’m always happy to chat about the work, the process, or anything in between!
