What an Amazing Trade Show !

Fantastic experience being the top selected artist from Cork at Showcase.  It was a total honour to represent South Cork in this famous Irish trade show, for galleries and gift shops in Ireland and abroad.  I had a cameo appearance on RTE’s Nationwide programme and was honored to meet the TD Simon Coveney Minister for Enterprise, Trade & Employment who is also from Cork. He enjoyed visiting my stand and discussing my mixed media art and in particular loved my Fine Art Ocean Ink  Collection.

It was also wonderful meeting my existing stockists and new stockists from both here and abroad.

Thank you for visiting my stand at Showcase & looking forward to doing business together.
