A look back at 2015…

opening night at the Boathouse gallery…2 weeks before giving birth!

As 2015 is almost over I’d like to take a few moments to write down things that I have accomplished during the year, instead of the things I didn’t 🙂  With my new arrival during the year, the list is not as long as in previous years, but I think I didn’t do too bad! In 2015 I…

– gave birth to a beautiful baby boy, my second studio assistant,
– got 5 new wholesale accounts in fantastic shops/galleries,
– became a member of Original Kerry
– had my best year yet at the annual Christmas Craft Fair in the Outlet Centre,
– got my online shop up and running,
– passed the 2000 fan mark on my Facebook Fan page,
– put a lot more efforts in my Instagram account,
– started a new collection of larger floral pendants,
– started offering personalisation of my necklaces with adorable charms,
– gave 4 painting workshops on top of my regular teaching in the Killarney Community College,
– was part of a group show with 3 highly regarded fellow artists at the Boathouse Gallery

 

These are the ones that come to my mind…! I hope you had a beautiful and successful year, and I leave you with a few random images of my year… see you in 2016!
