artist profile
Regina Rogers Fallon is an entirely self taught artist whose vision has recently succeeded in capturing the imagination of both Irish and an international audiences. She attended NCAD to further develop her craft, and since 1998 she has been focused on carving out a career in the art world.
Influenced greatly by Louis Le Brocquay and Francis Bacon, Regina's pieces are bold statements of color and intellect. She takes her inspiration from the many personalities of Irish weather, the soulful and rocky landscapes of Ireland and the magic of Irish History. Regina works in several styles but is currently producing modern figurative pieces using acrylic on canvas and mixed media.
Regina has become a regular exhibitor around Ireland, and has also had considerable success further afield. Her work can currently be viewed at the Arkangel Listowel Gallery, Co Kerry and the European Traditions Nantucket Island Gallery, Massachusetts USA. Last year Regina also had the honour of exhibiting alongside John Kingerlee at a successful exhibition in Barcelona.
Regina lives with her husband and two sons in Killester in Dublin. She takes particular pleasure in undertaking commissions for both domestic and commercial spaces. She is available to make her collection available for private viewings.
Inspired by her commission work in homes around Ireland, Regina has decided to further her studies this year, and is taking a degree course in Architecture and Design.
