I was absolutely delighted to hear that my piece ‘September’ resulted in my receiving the Irish News Prize at this years RUA Open which is currently running at the Ulster Museum until the 2nd of January. It subsequently sold, so I would like to thank the Irish News along with the purchaser, as it is always a little bit of a surprise when a piece sells, as it’s so easy to get a bit lost in self-doubt, and the award gave me a much needed confidence boost, and I’m extremely grateful.
