Artwork description:

Having spent most of my initial dates with my husband here, we have discovered Raheny is full of romantic hotspots. This fun piece highlights some of Raheny’s hidden gems through a board game where one can roll the dice and see where they might go for their next date. We hope others find love here, and fall head-over-heels for the Raheny area too.

Biography:

I am a paediatric doctor by trade and an avid artist in my spare time. I had a great experience painting the ‘When Life Gives You Rain’ box through the amazing Dublin Canvas project in 2017 in Crumlin where I was working. This time, I am looking forward to the opportunity to brighten up the Raheny area where I met my husband and now call home.
