My first exhibition of 2024 is a joint exhibition with Ann Brennan at the Gallery in the Coastguard Cultural Centre, in Tramore. The exhibition is called Low Tide / Green Grass. It runs until the end of May. Ann paints in oils, whereas I am exhibiting my watercolours, so there is a mix of styles.
Ann is actually a second cousin of mine. We only became acquainted about ten years ago, we were both working on a family tree project. As it happens Ann had already done a very comprehensive search and produced a little book. I learned that she was an artist. At the time I was beginning to spend more time painting myself, and Ann was a great source of practical help and advice. I am very pleased to be exhibiting with her this month.
Why I moved away from oils and embraced watercolour is another story.
