Super friends have super weddings

A wedding party brought me to Donegal for the first time last summer, this is my memory of a really great day.  More memories would have recalled if there hadn't been a large fridge full of Guinness at the party... maybe it was the Mojitos.

Cork, Old style.

Circa 2004 ish.  Cork in all it's Polaroid glory.

A cultural tour of Belfast

I recently had the pleasure of working with my very good friend Sally on a project for the Belfast Childrens Festival.  Sally put together a great little pamphlet for teachers to encourage children to engage in art.  These are the covers for the different venues involved in the festival  

Just starting something

Shandon

The last of my little blue Cork series.  This was done for a friend of mine who wanted to send his sister in NYC a little bit of Cork for Christmas.

New shop, New tag.

Brand new tags printed up for the new shop.  I took the inspiration from some vintage fashion illustrations, of course!  Strange to see my drawing on 5000 tags.......!  

Some art with your lunch?

I have been receiving great feedback from the exhibition, everyone is being very positive and I am delighted with all the people who have made the effort to make the trip to Cronins to see it, although the amazing food and drink available when you do get down there does make the trip well worth it..!

A colourful mess

                                                    Trying to turn this into an exhibiton.......

Church of the goldie angel

It took seven years to build St Finbar's Cathedral in Cork, it took me about 15 minutes to reduce it to lots of crooked lines and scribbles.....sorry Mr. Burges

Action Shot!

A few months back Toronto hosted a Draw TinTin exhibition. Little Green Street Gallery decided to give Ireland the chance to interpret the cartoon explorer.  This was my effort.  This is not quite finished, in true Carolyn last minute style, I was in such a rush to finish it, I sent it off without taking that vital final picture...........The final draft is much better.........

Rose madder...and madder

Not quite finished yet, dealing with a troublesome top left hand corner.

Bus conversations

Once I got over the panic of forgetting my headphones, the bus journey was quite entertaining.

Over the bridge to Kreuzberg

A small selection....

I like to be able to run if neccessary.

Blue skys in November

 Phthalo blue ( and a little titanium white) , how did I ever paint a sky without you? 

Amongst the trees

Very tall buildings behind very tall trees.  On the way to Alexanderplatz, Berlin.

Resistance is futile

Is it possible not to draw on a desktop?  I don't think so.
