Birds
Golden Eagle
Acrylic on canvas. My favourite bird of prey. The symbolic meaning of the Golden Eagle is that of a strong will and empowerment. Eagle people are seen as visionaries, those who are seekers and who are willing to push the limits of self-discovery.
A Heron in Blackrock Park, Co Dublin
Acrylic on canvas.The heron is an unstoppably determined, shrewd and patient bird. The heron animal symbolism helps us with the “in between” segments of our lives when we are at a crossroads. I find this painting very restful.
Peacock
Acrylic print on giclee. Inspired by a visit to the walled gardens in Marlay Park, Rathfarnham Co Dublin the peacock is a symbol of integrity and beauty we can achieve when we endeavour to show our true colours.
Botanical
Lisbon Street Scene, Portugal
Watercolour and ink giclee print. Lisbon is one of my favourite cities in Europe with a charismatic and vibrant personality. It is one of the oldest cities in the world and the oldest in western Europe.
Garden Scene
