Working all over Canada and Ireland as an accomplished Chef, he finally hung up his apron in 2011 and closed the last place he built and owned, The Hardwood Grill in Cork, County Cork, Ireland to spend more time enjoying what the open road has to offer.

Paintings are such good companions
One of the most enjoyable and rewarding things about creating, is that it can last forever. Constantly evoking a memory or a feeling. I am based in Cork Ireland as a freelance artist. Feel free to contact me if you need an artist for a website image or book illustration. I also accept commissions for major paintings
