I've had 100's of emails asking if it was me who hung the portrait/caricature painting of Brian Cowen in the national gallery last weekend, I'd like to take this opportunity to categorically state "IT WASN'T ME!!!
However it certainly was a great way of generating publicity.
This is one I did last year, which was commissioned for the Nob nation CD cover, which has also been in the news lately for wrong reasons.
It's been out a few months now and so far no police have called to the door!

Haha.. I can't believe someone hung up that in the gallery.. you are right, what a publicity!.. anyway, great job as always my friend.. probably next time you will have the chance to do the same with one of your caricatures, although I think the don't need that because everyone recognize your good work everywhere..
LOL, great story !
I meant to say, when I was in Dublin at New years, I took a trip into HMV, and stumbled across that album with your artwork on it. It looked great ! Ye Famous Man !
haha.. nice caricature.. like his Tie and Ring. does he has 6 fingers? great exaggerated version this is..
Heard this story on the radio this morning. Would have love to have seen the actual painting they're taking about.....on second thoughts, maybe I wouldn't!!!
It's a pain in the arse to honnest guys, the phone was ringing at 8 o clock this morning with radio stations asking did I know the artist involved, he's been named in the Daily mail today so good luck to him!
