More than six months in the planning and it’s finally here… and yes, it’s a little surreal.

Friends and family joined us for the opening last night, braving the near-freezing winter evening to see our art and hear our speeches (we did reward them with wine and nibbles). Everything I’ve painted this year is in the exhibition (plus a few paintings from last year) alongside work from the very talented Georgette Thompson and Della Goodinson.

Thank you Eszter Biczok and the Liffey for organising such a fab opening night. And thank you everyone who came along to support us.

Here are a few photos taken before our guests arrived…
