Sharon Devlin Art is an established, professional Irish artist. We were so impressed by her art display during our photoshoot event! 🎨😍

Sharon uses a wide range of media in her work. For richer, deeper and impactful pieces, she works with oils or acrylics. For more gentle and subtle pieces, she works with watercolours. Sharon also works with mixed media in some of her sculptural pieces. She is inspired by story, folklore, Irish history and the beautiful landscapes and seascapes of Ireland. 🏞🌊

Her work has been commissioned by The Citywest Hotel Dublin, The Harcourt Inn Dublin and in many private national and international collections. Her work has been exhibited in Rua Red Arts Gallery, Tallaght Community Arts Gallery, Straffan Antiques and Design Centre, The Connolly Centre and many group shows at Russborough House Wicklow.
