My name is Anna, and I am a Galway-based artist. My background spans fine art, art teaching, and art therapy, but above all, art is my passion and my way of life.

I am endlessly fascinated by paper—its texture, its versatility, and its expressive potential. Over time, I discovered my unique artistic language through quilling, a paper technique that involves rolling and shaping strips of paper and assembling them to form an image. I’ve transformed this traditionally decorative craft into a contemporary art form: I paint with paper.

My work blends traditional art foundations with a modern, intuitive approach. Guided by inner voice and emotion, I draw inspiration from heritage, nature, and the beauty of human connection.

My pieces have been showcased in national and international exhibitions, art fairs, galleries, cafés, and across Irish local markets. My work has been published in Artist's Eye on Galway (2022) and Artist's Eye on Kerry (2023).

I have created multiple art projects for Cruinniú na nÓg, funded and featured by Creative Ireland and Galway City Council in 2023, 2024, and 2025. In 2025, my work for Irish Design Week was also featured and funded by the Design & Craft Council Ireland.

I am a professional member of Visual Artists Ireland and the Design & Craft Council Ireland.
