Featured Artists

Lisa Conlon, artist

Lisa Conlon was born 1981 and raised about a mile from Dungannon in County Tyrone.

Her latest exhibition "Soul Language" delves deeper into the collective soul, using bold lines and even bolder colours to express the artist’s sense of freedom within the medium of acrylic on canvas.

Conor Walton, artist

Conor Walton was born in Dublin in 1970, and studied in the National College of Art and Design, from which he graduated in 1993 with a Joint Honours Degree in the History of Art and Fine Art (Painting). He received a special commendation and prize for his thesis, 'Abstraction: A Discourse on Language and Painting'.

After reading for an MA in Art History and Theory at the University of Essex, which he was awarded with distinction in 1995 (dissertation subject: 'The Battle of the Ancients and the Moderns'), he spent some time in Florence studying painting and old master techniques with Charles Cecil. He returned to Dublin in 1996, and had his first solo exhibition there in 1999.

Niamh Slack, artist

Painted in oils and acryclics, Niamh Slack's art draws its inspiration from the natural landscape. Painting outdoors whenever possible, she especially enjoys depicting the woodland and coastal scenes of the East and West of Ireland.

Her art is about capturing the essence of those places that strike a chord with her. Perhaps more importantly than this, her paintings are about her love of colour. When working in oils, she is continuously experimenting with the placing of heavy layers of colour on canvas with the aim of capturing the richness of colour in our natural landscape.
