Chara Nagle, artist

Chára Nagle started painting at a young age and decided very early on that art was her life and passion. She was fascinated by observing people and portraying their everyday activities in her art.

Chára’s paintings are big, bold, dramatic observations of everyday life. However there is also an element of intrigue and humour to Chára’s paintings. She invites the viewer to come to their own conclusions as to what is happening in the painting. Chára engages the viewer further through her use of vibrant colours and realistic portrail of her subject matter.

Richard Browne, artist

Artist statement: "I am enthused by organically driven abstracts. For me its all about openess. The art assumes its own shape and life. I tend to see the natural world in my pieces but try not to lead them too much."
