lovely little opening

Super late with this post - it's been one of those weeks of tail chasing and backward peddling!

 A huge big shout out to all who turned out for our lovely little opening at Meubles, on Friday night! There was a lot of love in the room, and it was great to share my work with new people and all who've helped get the collection together (LOVE my family!) 

We had some beautiful wine, great catch ups and chin wags, lovely nibbles and a few nice sales :-) 

Got to catch up with Úna from Charles Newhaven - beautiful interiors shop in Castledermot and also Wallpaper Emporium, Kilkenny (that girl is busy!) Super impressed with her work and love the wallpapers they carry in the shop - I may just need to change a room or two in my house... hmmmm 

As always it was fab to see Mary and her mam who drove down from Offaly (Lynn arrived complete with her art handlers gloves and coat - love that lady!)  both are such talented artists it was so affirming to get such positive feedback from them both - thank you!

 I did however loose some of the crowd to the sofa section in Meubles though - my sister Clare has picked out a new sofa to go with her Siobhan Jordan original she has hanging in her living room - I'm totally with that kind of accessorizing! 

I've done quite a bit of promo for this show and it's surreal to see press articles about yourself - I also had my first radio interview this week - n.e.r.v.e.r.a.c.k.i.n.g.!!!!   Sooooo I'm actually doing this for real and making it into my full time job - nothing to fall back on this - this is it!! 

eek scary, yet hugely exciting stuff!!

Sneak Peak!

There's a real autumn air around at the moment - heating oil has been delivered, wood burning stoves are being set up, chutneys and preserves are being made with the last of the harvest and we're bracing ourselves for another cold winter! I love it - the low sun and it's special light, unique to Ireland. I've so much planned for the Winter, but first....

.....here's a quick sneak peak of a new piece for the show in Meubles Kilkenny! Am loving these - have two ready to roll and hoping to get a few more done in time :-) Only a few days to go eek!  Don't forget the opening reception is at 6pm - (Wine from the Wine Centre, Kilkenny - Thank You!) Exhibition runs for the month of September.
