Nuala McEvoy

Nuala McEvoy started writing and taught herself to paint approximately seven years ago, at the age of fifty. Since then, her written work has been published in several literary magazines, and she has read her poems on podcasts. Nuala paints daily using acrylics and sometimes black marker pen on canvas. She started submitting her artwork for publication just a year ago, and now more than one hundred of her paintings have been accepted for publication in over fifty literary magazines and reviews. Her art has been accepted as cover art for several of these reviews. She has had two exhibitions in Münster, Germany and currently holds an exhibition of forty paintings in The Cavendish Centre, 44 Hallam Street, London. nualamcevoy | Instagram | Linktree

Artist’s Statement

My relationship with paints, brushes and  canvas started late in life and it has been an intense affair.  Starting to paint at the age of fifty has made me feel a strong need to make up for lost time.  I paint daily and allow my art to be dictated by the intensity of colours which nature reveals to us on a daily basis.  My art is a journey for me, and when I start a piece, it is impossible to anticipate the end result.  Its revelation is always a surprise.
