About Alice McMahon

I specialize in figurative charcoal drawing. My work was recently shown and sold at the Saatchi Gallery in London. Current works delve into the realm of symbolism and magic realism.
All of my drawings are meant to be noble representations of individual subjects, and also bring together a wealth of influences, recognition of art history and myth and a contemporary attitude to create images that are of the moment, but hopefully will also remain relevant in the future.

    Did life feel slower there? I get so tired of the fast pace, even in the small town area in which I live. This looks and feels so charming, and old-worldly.

    It is slower. People are laid back and friendly. We’d love to move there someday, but I’d also like to live close to Dublin or Galway for some culture. Not to difficult in a country the size of Indiana :)

    Yes, it has to be a PUB TOUR! Nice composition.

  • We hit several pubs per day tps, but sometimes we only took a photo or two, and sometimes we had a cup of coffee. More often we had a pint! Thanks again.

    Now this is a memory revived. I was actually here in 2006. We stayed in a Guest house near Coaghpatrick mountains. The music here is outstanding. This is a great place to visit. Thank you Alice for again blessing me with pleasant memories,

    Donate some of your art and save a child’s life!
