The Irish Words Collection - Cards

My name is Deirdre Patton and I am an artist living in Creevy, Ballyshannon.

I handmake all of my art work and prints from scratch, using paint, inks and mixed media before turning them into cards, postcards & prints for you to enjoy.

I love adding little Irish words and phrases to my cards.

They’re a natural part of the language and culture around me and I enjoy the warmth, humour and character they bring to my illustrations.

Some may be familiar, while others might be new to you – but all are included simply because I feel they are right at home on my cards.
