Welcome to my little corner of the world wide web.... which I am creating to remind me of interesting arty events and works I come across in small ways and bigger ways on my travels. It's now August, and it's been an interesting and very fast year..I want to go backwards , before I go forwards , and remember some of the artystuff I was involved in this year, 2011. In January, I started working on a big "clean up" and "do up" job in a room in Ranelagh Arts centre, making it good for working in as a studio space. It took me weeks of clearing, lifting, dumping, sorting, dusting, painting, nailing , glueing, buying and more, to make it ready to move my things into, but it was so worth it , because now at last, I have my own studio space. It's one good feeling to be able to walk in to a work space, and everything is just as it was when I left it. I started working on a hubcap as a metal surface for an artpiece....
Welcome! I am a Contemporary Irish artist working with nature, experiencing my environment in an intuitive and semi-abstract way. My work brings me on a journey where I am always learning as I respond to my surroundings through my art materials and mixed media. Nature is so full of beauty and natural energy and if I can pass some of this on to you through my artworks, it will be a privilege indeed. Find me on www.instagram.com/helenfarrell_art
