    I have salvaged a few panes of old stained/patterned glass from renovation work on my house and would like to get a small artwork made out of them, possibly in exchange for the rest to the rare glass. If you know anyone who you think might be interested, please let me know. I'm based in Dublin. Cheers!

    Hi folks

    Just wish to recommend a fantastic calligraphy artist called Aoife Lyons. I commissioned her to write up a poem for me for my partners 30th bday and the resulting piece was fantastic.

    Her attention to detail was superb and the subtle use of colour at start of each verse really set the piece off. She used an old English style of calligraphy on a sand colored parchment. Furthermore the frame she choose to set this piece off was fantastic. Finally the price was very reasonable.

    This is a piece of art work that will take centre stage in our home for many years to come.:)

    Her website is at the link below and she can do anything you like be it for weddings or poetry etc. I promise you will not be disappointed ;)

    Hi,

    We are looking at putting a new shop unit together in North Tipp with 4 or so anchor clients. We also want to provide exhibition space for local arts & crafts providers. We will also consider people for pop up shop space where you hire a unit for a week to showcase and sell your wares. It will be a different idea in the idea and should work. PM me any expressions of interest as we will be able to plan better when we see levels of interest.

    Thanks,

    Tom

    We are looking at running a street art event in Dublin later in the summer.

    We are looking for chalk artists who could do pieces on the pavements and also for charicturists who would be interested in taking part - doing charictures of people visiting the event.

    Hi, I am looking to get a portrait painter that can draw some sketches of couples arriving at a wedding. Similar to those painters you see as busker types on the streets, where they paint humorous portraits. If someone could point me in the right direction it would be a great.Dublin area.
    Any help appreciated. Thanks

    I am looking for a present for my brother for his upcoming wedding. He is marrying a girl from Tipp and they are both interested in hurling. I have come across a painting online that captured what I was looking for but it is no longer for sale (and the hurlers in the picture were from the wrong counties). I tried contacting the artist through his flicker account but he doesn't seem to have used it in a number of years.

    Does anyone have details of an artist that would be able to do a painting like I described. I have a link to the painting that I really liked if that would help.

    I have started a new Irish company that specializes in the customization and design of protective smart phone covers. We have the ability to do high resolution full colour/photographic images which are embedded using a new technique into the surface of the plastic (not stickers or vinyls)

    We have a website which will be going online in the next two weeks where users can choose designs from our gallery and/or upload an image of their own to create their own case.

    We are looking for talented artists/illustrators to do some fashionable designs for our stock gallery. We will look to offer a commission on every sale of your artwork and if your designs sell well we will look to add more.

    Please contact me if you are interested in designing for us and I will arrange to view your portfolio and send you some examples of styles we are looking for.

    Hi, I have posted an ad on adverts.ie here looking for someone to do an ink illustration of our wedding venue which we'll use for invites etc. and I wanted to post here to draw it to the attention of the talent folks on this forum in case you might be interested , please PM me if interested.

    I had posted this also in the Digital Art Design forum but now realize this might be a better place for it as given that I'm looking for an ink illustration it doesn't need to be digital - if it was done in actual ink we could possibly scan it for use on the materials.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1 croissantcraic


    My husband forwarded your request to me thinking I might be a good fit for your oil painting needs. I work primarily in oils, and while I specialize in custom dog portraits I do landscapes as well. You can see a samples of some of my most recent work on my blog here: http://croissantcraic.blogspot.com/2011/11/oil-painting-is-my-jam.html or my dog paintings on my website http://www.croissantdesigns.com/index2.php#/home/
    Hope to hear from you!

    Hi,

    I'm not sure if I'll have any takers, but I'm looking for a gift for someone special. It's more a momento of our friendship really. I'm ill, and my condition has deteriorated. I am basically looking for a painting of his pet as a special gift. Something subtle that will be in the background of his life, but serves as a reminder of the time we had together.

    Is there anyone here who would be able to help out? Obviously I'd cover all expenses, and a modest fee.

    PM me for more details.

    Thanks a lot.

    Edit. I would also like a small sketch of a photo of me... it's the most recent photo of me, and it means a lot.

    I'm assuming that Dublin College is DIT. They have an arts department. Fellow students might be willing to have their pictures taken. Alternatively try NCAD.
