Helen Connolly Art

I enjoyed drawing from an early age, so you could say I was born with a pencil in my hand. Even at infant school I drew portraits of people and pets – I was a real show off! Since then, all I ever wanted to be was an artist.

I went to college and then to university to study illustration and art and design. I hold a degree in Design Technology and Visual Art. I also have a HND in Illustration and a Foundation Degree in Art and Design.

I’m best known for my abstract pictures of Liverpool using pen and ink. Liverpool is my home town and I really enjoy doing this kind of work. People are also interested in the thoughts and feelings behind these pictures.

One day I’d love to become an art therapist alongside selling my artwork as a professional artist. I’d also love to have further exhibitions of my own artwork.
