On July 26, a group exhibition opened at the Athena Gallery, featuring five of my works. It was a great opportunity to present my paintings in a new context, connect with the audience, and see their immediate reactions.

The exhibition in Longford opened on March 29, 2025, and ran for three months. Three of my works were featured, each inspired by the Irish spring. It was a wonderful opportunity for me to share my art with a new audience and to experience the viewers’ immediate reactions.

Did I really do it? This was my very first experience taking part in such a large-scale exhibition. It was a real challenge for me — to step out and present myself among so many incredibly talented and well-known artists. But I did it.
