About
Nick Fegan
I work and live in South County Dublin and have had slow but steady recognition of my work among my peers and critics. Feel free to contact me about any work and I'll be obliged to assist in any way I can.
I have exhibited in galleries and public amenities over the years. I was commissioned to illustrate a series of books for RTE historian: Hugh Oram of Radio 1 'Seascapes' programme. Book in stores now: 'Little Book of Stillorgan' and on other books: 'Little Book of Mount Merrion and Booterstown'.You can find me on newirishart.com. Irish Watercolour Society.
I love to experiment with watercolours and acrylics. Watercolour is a demanding medium that is spontaneous and fast-drying and requires fast action and confidence. Acrylic is my latest exciting medium. It's ideal for Plein-air painting and has similar qualities to watercolour. Landscape painting is my purpose to paint, other mediums at present don't give me the result as these mediums do. Oils I've tried - they don't excite me, unfortunately. I want my viewers to see I put all my energy into every work possible. I honestly hope this shows through. I hope you enjoy viewing my paintings.
