Dáire is an Irish illustrator and artist currently based in England. She can be found floating around in forested areas, looking for skulls and drawing birds, or creeping around in graveyards.
Her work spans across several areas of interest, rooted in folklore and myths that come from growing up in Ireland with the vibrant stories of legends surrounding her, and a landscape which seems to have secrets hidden in every crevice. She works predominantly in paint, and shares her stories through strong narrative orientated pieces. Her aim is to take you by the hand and lead you into a world where even the impossible may live.
She can be reached through chanting the correct incantation three times in a mirror charged by moonlight, or alternatively, via her contact page.
