Kieran studied Fine Art at Falmouth School of Art in 1994, and the Cornish coast and the Isles of Scilly continue to inform and inspire these evocative images which fizzle with life and electric colour.
Kieran loves working outside, superimposing layers of oil paint with fractured marks, dashes and splatters that capture the spirit of a continually changing landscape. Each piece is developed and refined over subsequent weeks in his Oxfordshire studio.
His work is held in many influential and distinguished collections internationally, as well as being represented by the following galleries.
