A self portrait against black, blonde hair falling across a face thickly covered in mottled green mask, the eyes wide open and the mouth marked by a single red line.

Lesley Wingfield

Portrait painter based in Athlone. Using her own photographs and sketches of people, she captures an unguarded moment, working from dark to light on different scales.

A young woman in a white dress hangs underwater in blue green light, her face dissolving where it meets the mirrored underside of the surface, pale fabric trailing away to one side.

A face fills the whole frame, dark green mask covering everything but the eye sockets and lips, auburn hair at both edges, the eyes turned upward.

A young man in red patterned swim shorts hangs suspended in deep teal water, arms outstretched beneath the rippling surface, looking straight at the viewer.
