For over 40 years I have been using Art as my form of relaxation. Every day I spend hours working on new ideas and challenging my creative powers. It is the most rewarding thing in my life and I am blessed to have the gift. Also I am proud of my two very gifted children who are achieving in their lifetime what I would like to have been able to achieve.

My miniature Life and Love
I always wanted a dolls house and in 1999 I set about my journey into miniatures!! What a Journey! I got sucked in and I am still working down the scales at 1/144th at the moment. I built my first house in 1/12th scale. I enjoyed collecting all the items and making what I could. I spent 8 weeks making a patchwork quilt hand pieced and stitched for the bed. It was a labour of love and worth every stitch. I have many treasured items collected on my travels around the world. My second scale was 1/24th so it is almost completed. I got a comission to do the Street Scene in 2004 seen here and it is proudly displayed in a Pub in the Galway area.
