Artwork description:

This piece is dedicated to the life and legacy of Roger Casement. He was born and raised in Sandycove and now has his statue erect locally at the Dun Laoghaire Baths. He has been described as the "father of twentieth-century human rights investigations" and is undoubtedly one of the most famous men to have ever lived in the local area if not Irieland.

Biography:

Painting pretty much anything, in order to better understand the subject and improve my own artistic abilities, I am a self-taught artist from Dun Laoghaire with an unquenchable desire to improve my own artistic abilities. I revel in projects that include landscapes, portraits, abstract shapes and colours, digital design and, where he produces his best work, in large scale murals. Typically using black and white with bold dashes and splashes of colour, the designs are heavily influenced by street art and look to use this influence to provide a somewhat urban perspective on more traditonal pieces of artwork.
