'The lives of birds'

There have been sightings of a rare species of bird.They can be distinguished by their bright colours, spots and strip markings, plump silhouettes and unusual behaviours

Background info...

I graduated from the National College of Art and Design in 1996 and have since worked as a professional artist and designer. The work i produce is unusual in that it uses stitch to draw imagery and provide visual and surface texture in combination with recycled papers, paint and recycled fabrics.More recently i have started screen printing on fabrics and on paper backgrounds, which add another textural dimension to pieces.

News.....

After 6 months off looking after my baby son, i am now back working! The past few months has given me the opportunity to step back from my work and see it in a new light and the creative urge is stronger than ever. I have alot of new work lined up in my head!

To follow my work in progress and what im up on a week to week basis you can check out my facebook page;  http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/pages/Lynn-Kenny-artist/146803205330852?ref=ts

You can still however,view work at the gallery/studio in Killaloe town in East Clare alongside Killaloe framing studio. (Opposite AIB Bank and St.Flannan's Cathadral above Sweetie P's Boutique). Look out for the purple bird!

Opening hours: Tuesday - Saturday 10am - 6pm

Beaumont Hospital.

Just finished in Feb. 2010 are a series of 8 large pieces for the Beaumont Hospital in Dublin.These can be seen in the childrens x-ray waiting area and corridor.The image on the right here is from one of the pieces and is called 'The flying pig race'.It was a great opportunity to produce brand new work, i had great fun with it and hope it brings a smile to the children and parents who pass through the hospital. 

Workshops

If you are interested in participating in a specialised course in the future, focusing on drawing on paper using predominately machine stitching,let me know and i can contact you when a workshop is being planned..If you would like to get an idea of the work that is produced in this type of workshop, please contact me and i can email you some images of previous students work.
