Mary McCarthy

Phone: 086 3660382

Mary McCarthy is largely a self-taught artist, who took up painting ten years ago to prepare for retirement. She has taken classes with different tutors and is currently a pupil at Catherine Lawlor School of Art. Painting mainly in oils, she also enjoys experimenting in pen and watercolour, pastels and mixed media. Mary sees the wonder in every aspect of nature and is drawn to capture the moment in her art. Struck by, either, the light, the colour, the place, the sky, the sea, the ambience, the people, or perhaps all of these together, she draws inspiration for her paintings. She has also painted a number of commissioned portraits.

Mary has exhibited in a number of AIB Staff Art Exhibitions, in the Newbridge Town Hall PopUp Art exhibitions and Culture Day, Red Stables St. Anne’s Park Raheny, The Helix, DCU and virtually on Phil Anderson Art website and Juliette Gallery, Dublin School of Art. Her paintings have been collected nationally and internationally.

Mary invites you to linger a moment and enjoy her paintings.
