Welcome To The Creative World Christian Daly.

In October 2011 I received a call from my brother, Simon, that his 19 year old son had decided to focus the next few months working on a porfolio for art college and would I help. Christian had just passed his leaving cert and then realised that what he wanted to be was an artist. Christian used to spend time with me in my studio as a child and always enjoyed art, but that was the last thing I had seen him draw, and had no idea what type of creative he would be.

I obviously said I would help and five months later after Christian sitting in my work room (which is quite small) painting, drawing, sculpting, has today delivered his porfolio to his first art college for review. Nerve racking stuff!

I think he is a very powerful creative and his passion is to become an animator, which I have no doubt he will become.

I also must say thank you to some seriously creative people who helped him along the way, Trion Sweeny of Sandymount Art School, Charlie and Caroline Kranz and Viv Duignan.

Above is a few samples of some of his work, which I hope you enjoy.

Illustrated map of Canada It has taken me ages and I am still not finished! I am really enjoying illustrating this map of Canada, but need a little break from maps! I have illustrated it with the cities and the towns of the different states. Then I have added the animals from the region. I hope to have it finished in the next week, I will post the final image when it is completed. Hope you like it!

Kids Map Of The UK & Ireland

Kids Map of the UK & Ireland (unfinished) I have decided to do a range of wall maps of different countries. I finished my USA map and am now starting the UK & Ireland. I have found that I really like illustrating maps! Also, I am not illustrating them in my usual hand drawn/painted way, I do hand draw all the animals and map outlines but then scann them onto my computer. I then colour them in on the computer and place them on the map, the text is then added, simple as that! Well, not that simple, it really takes my a long time, but I hope you think it is worth it. I am going to get samples printed, when I have approved them they will be printed and ready to buy, I will keep you posted!
