Rosemary Fallon NDip. B.A. M.Sc. is an emerging Galway artist who studied a Degree in Fine Art Painting at the National College of Art & Design and completed a Masters in Multimedia in DCU. She shares her inspiring art and valuable skills through her own gallery and successful art school that are located in Galway.   

Her atmospheric creations consist of distorted characters that transport the viewer into their beautiful other worldly environments. Rosemary's allegorical paintings feature characters with oversized heads which reference the human ego. The stories behind her pieces are created on a personable level and include fragments of narratives unique to her own social engagements, life experiences and inspirations. Rosemary provides the viewer with a platform to escape into these inspiring worlds. 

In relation to inspiration Rosemary states "In relation to inspiration I never go anywhere without a pen and paper. My ideas come to me in a flash, and within seconds I know exactly what the work will look like. On completion it feels like I’m meeting an old friend and that they have always been there. As the work progresses I always feel a great empathy with the characters which then alters my own emotional state of mind. It is true to say I pour my heart and soul into my work with every object and element tells it’s own story." We are very excited to be exhibiting her collection of paintings with us from the 19th-25th May with the Wicklow Arts Festival.
