About the Artist
I'm Hayley, a self-taught Irish artist creating expressive contemporary artwork inspired by colour, personality and the things we love.
After building a career in healthcare, I took the leap to pursue art full-time in late 2025. What started as a passion alongside my career has grown into a creative business, allowing me to turn my love of colour and painting into work that brings character and individuality into people's homes.
I like to describe my style as loose and imperfect. Using a mix of abstract brushstrokes and splashes of colour, along with more traditional techniques, I aim to capture the animal’s individual character and quirks that make you love them so much.
My work is bold, playful and personal, with a focus on capturing the spirit of the subjects and stories that mean the most to us
Original Paintings
Inspired by all forms of wildlife, from the Curragh Plains to the African Plains, I strive to reveal the quirkiness in some of the most unassuming characters.
You will be able to find some of my available original pieces lining the walls of Harte’s Bar and Restaurant, Market Square, Kildare Town.
Commissions
There is always a story behind each commission and I aim to bring that story to life.
Creating a commission of your pet is much more than just putting paint onto a canvas. I love bringing out the true essence of your furry friend’s personality.
Each commission is a truly collaborative process between myself and the client to create an eye catching feature for your home that is sure to be a conversation starter.
