Catherine Fanning
Born in Wicklow, she now lives and works in Sligo. Her art practice is in the areas of Painting, Printing, Mixed Media and Social Engaged Practice. For this artwork Catherine was influenced by traditional icon painting. She used several different medium such as Collage, Ink and Acrylic in the making of this piece.
Miriam Doran: I was born in New Zealand and have been residing in Donegal for the past 20 years. Prior to that I lived in London for many years where I studied aspects Fine Art, at Chelsea School of Art. I graduated from IT Sligo last year BA merit 1 Fine Art. My art work 'On This Day' is an attempt to encapsulate the pathos of The Irish Landscape, rich in colour and texture that no doubt inspired Bardwell. Quite by chance I glanced though my neighbours window near Mullaghmore, 'there! I have it'! the energy and magic that Bardwell conveyed, indeed the joyous arrival of spring, the arch on the skyline echoes this.
