Liz has explored painting and making all her life. She works as a full time visual artist from her studio in Sutton, Dublin. While painting is her main passion, she also creates large metal sculptures.She studied at NCAD and received a Bachelor of Design (BDes) Hons  in Jewellery & Metalwork and a Diploma in Art & Design. Her paintings explore the boundaries between observational interpretation, existing somewhere between external and internal imagined landscapes. This connectivity of space within space has evolved into work using less defined marks, embracing chance, spontaneity and accident.

Conor McGuire was born in the west of Ireland and has chosen to live there as his influences are taken from the local rural landscape and townscape. His technique can vary from realism to abstract depending on the subject, but he finds his artistic home to be in an impressionistic impasto technique.  He loves the quality and light in the west of Ireland and the shifting transience it brings to the subject matter. He likes subjects that are timeless and speak to the viewer without requiring them to be political or analytical. To his viewer Conor hopes to get some sense of the quirky essence that makes the west of Ireland life so special..a sense of the timelessness of the place, its friendliness and beauty. The type of medium he uses depends on the type of painting he is working on; for landscape and townscape he uses oils and then acrylics for abstract work. He favors lush textured brush strokes, allowing the paint to convey and suggest form and detail.  Conor hopes to convey a sense of joy of being alive and living a full life in a unique and beautiful place.

Born in Belfast in 1945 and from an early age he displayed a remarkable talent for drawing.  Fran is a great lover of music and this has provided much of the inspiration he needed for his own work. Musicians such as Jazz legends Myles Davis, John Coultrane, Barney Kastle and Kenny Burrell have been a big influence on him, as have Pink Floyd, The Chieftains, Led Zeppelin, Bob Marley, Ray Charles and especially Van Morrison. Morrison is a very special influence as he too grew up in the same era and surroundings as Fran and indeed they shared many special days together playing music in Belfast in the early 1960's. Fran McCann has developed a highly personal and recognisable style, producing paintings of enormous energy and passion.
