Veronica Wallis
Veronica Wallis takes relationships with family and friends as the basis for her subject matter. By melding currently fashionable images (of shoes and handbags, for example) with images from art history, she ‘has fun with the sublime and the ridiculous’ while enjoying the richness of oil colour on paper and free, expressive marks.

Heidi Wickham
After graduating in fine art at Bristol University, Heidi Wickham moved to Sligo and initially got involved in aspects of theatre there: writing, set and costume design. She turned to charcoal drawing in 2004, and found a love for the medium as well as for her subjects - animals domestic and wild. Her animal art has since been shown at the Royal Hibernian Academy, the Royal Scottish Academy, the Royal Academy (UK), and the Royal Ulster Academy (RUA).
