Age 10

Acrylic on paper

‘This is a self-portrait from a photo taken by my art teacher, Kate. I was moving when she took it, so my mouth is open and my eyes look surprised. I used lots of colours in my face — pinks, oranges, and grey.’

Mise, 2026

Aois 10
Aicrileach ar pháipéar

‘Is féinphortráid atá anseo atá bunaithe ar ghrianghraf a ghlac mo mhúinteoir ealaíne, Kate. Bhí mé ag gluaiseacht thart nuair a ghlac sí an grianghraf. Dá bhrí sin, tá mo bhéal oscailte agus is léir ó mo shúile go bhfuil ionadh orm. D’úsáid mé go leor dathanna nuair a bhí m’aghaidh á péinteáil agam — bándearg, oráiste agus liath.’
