I'm an artist and aspiring photographer working from my studio in Donegal with frequent trips to Dublin. I'm currently studying Design at University of Ulster, Magee Campus. As of ~September 2007 I will be working out of Augsburg, Germany. I will spend a year on Erasmus there.

Right now I'm working on a series of large paintings exploring composition and light . I'm trying to capture subjects who appear unaware of my presence.I'm fascinated by the peace and serenity some subjects carry, yet others reach into dread and depression with relatively the same pose. To be explored further..

Through Flickr I wish to expand my dedication to photography and to hopefully develop it alongside my paintings, interlinking and supplying each discipline with valuable content and inspiration. Also adding ,not so calculated photos to give a running commentary on my daily experiences.

All feedback, tips and comments on anything welcome.
