Sara Sue McNeill

Business Development and
Analyst Associate

In 1974 I received my Diploma of Art [equivalent of a B.A. now] from the Dublin Art College as an external student. I studied under the International artist Kenneth Webb N.D.D., A.T.D., F.R.S., R.W.A. and visual artist Anne Tallentine.

I had my first solo Exhibition in 1980, in the Kenny Gallery, Galway Ireland, so I would count that as the start of my professional career.

In 1986 I attended The Tyrone Guthrie Centre in Annaghmakerrig Ireland, to help my Artistic journey.

I have been running classes in my studio, since 1978, for both amateurs and professional artists in all mediums. I used to have residential courses throughout Ireland, but now I just do day courses in my Studio.

In 1986 I started to teach at Bangor Campus Co Down were I helped students do their City and Guilds in Art.

The Studio overlooks the Irish Sea towards Scotland, it’s only 25 miles away. I have lived here off on for all my life, when I was little from the age of 3 my father had cruising boats, sleeping 7 people so we would spend the summer on board [not a holiday for my poor Mother] , so the pull of the sea is in my DNA. As a teenager I would be sailing in dinghy’s , so this love of the sea is reflected in my paintings of boats with large expanse of sea and sky, both of which I see straight out of my studio window.
