Hello, I'm Deirdre and I am a native of Skerries in Co. Dublin.
I am a mixed media Artist creating art around a full time job in design. Hence the name 'SidelineArt'!
I have always enjoyed Art and the creative process but I'm not trained other than the odd day-workshop I've attended. It all started with a Christmas gift from my Grandfather of a set of oil paints, when I was probably about 10.
In 2017 I had my first solo exhibition at Skerries Mills.
I have been commissioned by Skerries Tidy Towns Committee to paint various shopfronts/premises for Tidy Town Awards prizes.
As well as creating for myself, in the last few years I have donated artwork to the Twitter Art Exhibition (Worldwide) and Incognito (Jack & Jill Childrens Charity) Ireland.
I display my work at various markets. I'll post to Instagram and Facebook as to when & where I'll be.
Recently, I'm posting Pet Protraits that I sketch on my commute home from work. (If I'm lucky enough to get a seat!)Want to contact me, but aren't on social media?
