Playing sport has always been a big part of my life and yet it’s only recently that I felt a call to paint something on this theme.
I went with a photo taken by @sportsfile back in 2006 of a Senior Cup Final when my club @oldalexhc was playing Hermes. In this moment, I’m competing for the ball against Jenny Burke, one of the best Irish internationals of my generation.
I like how everything fades away during intense matchplay, how we’re both shoulder to shoulder, completely in the zone, utterly determined to win the ball.
