Artwork description:

This piece is a tribute to our Doctors, Nurses, and Frontline staff who have been and continue to work tirelessly to keep us safe and well during these trying times. ‘Dá fhada an lá tagann an tráthnóna’ (“However long the day, the evening will come”) , an old Irish proverb meaning that no matter what happens time will pass and every problem will subside, is to show them our love and remind everyone that tough times pass and better days are to come.

Biography:

I’m an Irish artist currently working and living in Dublin. Mainly painting acrylic or digital works, I am also developing my mural painting skills, being commissioned to do some large outdoor works including last year's Dublin Canvas (Good Doggo piece). I love creating colourful, thoughtful artworks and seeing the public's reaction to them.
