Irish Art Ep 12 - our first interview from across the pond

In this episode, we talk with Peter Grimshaw - Retired Museum Professional-Freelance Artist/Art Educator - Peabody, Massachusetts, United States

We discuss the effect of lockdown, how he is a 3rd gen Irish from Munster. Encouraged by his dad, who was an architect, to draw - and got into cartoon illustration and comic strips. He has worked in photography and taught it for 7 years. Is retired and working on developing a brand new website to show his work since the ’70s.

We go through the images available to see below - we invite you to have a look at them while listening to this episode as we listen to Peter discuss these pieces. 

It’s a beautiful thing when artists from opposite ends of the globe can converse together, collaborate and be inspired to develop artistic ventures together. 

We look forward to welcoming Peter to Ballyrogan sometime soon and developing collaborative exhibitions in each other's localities.

Sarah is going to help Peter get online! Skill sharing and continuous learning are very important to us.
