CONOR O'CONNELL
 

I am a visual artist based between Ballaghaderreen, Co. Roscommon and NCAD in Dublin where I am currently studying Fine Art Painting and Education.
I enjoy using traditional mediums and techniques and my style is particularly influenced by the Irish school of painters in the early-mid 20th century. My work deals primarily with nature and the human figure and the process of documenting and recording contemporary scenes and subject matter forms a major part of my practice. 
I am constantly striving to improve and every painting is a learning curve- this is something I very much enjoy and if I achieved a state of pure perfection I wouldn't see the point in working anymore.
