Ruth is such an amazing talented person. She sees into things with great insight and can translate the emotional and meaningful elements of things through her work. I have several pieces of her work, as do my family - they make wonderful and lasting gifts! Keep up the great work Ruth. You have an old soul with so much knowledge and wisdom that comes through in your Art, looking forward to the future works!
Ruth your work always brings a smile to my face. A sense of delight, wonder, intrigue, mystery, resonance, melancholy and sometimes mayhem. When you own an art piece by Ruth you know you have something really special. An elegant piece painted on sturdy black slate hangs in our kitchen, the heart of our home. It is a depiction of the Hawthorn Tree under a golden moon with a white dove in the top left. Written in Ogham is the word "Fáilte" meaning Welcome. A timeless piece that anchors an essence of warmth and rigor hangs proudly and welcomes all who enter our home.
I met Ruth when she was volunteering at a charity fundraiser for Alzheimer's and MS back in 2018. Our first collaboration was for The Fairgreen Community Garden. I was building Stickmen garden decor and asked her to provide a memorial mural for the garden. Ruth created a unique and mesmerizing piece of art titled "Moongate " and kindly donated it to the community Garden. Since then Ruth has donated her beautiful Art to other fundraising projects. I also have several pieces of her work in my home including paintings and Slate-Art. Aswell as the Ogham alphabet speaking of our ancestry and Culture Ruth's use of symbols and her unique style give a mystical quality to each piece of Slate-Art that touches the very soul and invites the onlooker into the mystery of eternity.
I knew Ruth for years, I was speaking to her about my good friend who lost her best friend. I really wanted to give my friend something to help her. I had this idea of my friend and her horses with her two young boys and her husband. Her late friend loved sailing. Ruth straight away had suggestions to make this special idea become real. She communicated her drafts to get the details perfect so it really looked like a family portrait. The sailboat in the distance represents her late friend but reminds her that she's always there behind her. My friend has this picture in her hall and loves knowing the story behind it. I'll be forever grateful to Ruth for her kindness and understanding during our little creative journey.
I was introduced to Ruth from a friend of mine who had some of Ruth's work in her home and office. I commissioned Ruth to work on two pieces for my home. Her attention to detail was impeccable and I was delighted to receive her work. A slate piece with Ogham script and a beautiful painting of the epic story of the Táin. I am absolutely delighted with her work.
Ruth has made several pieces of Art for me and each one has been a delight. I commissioned personalised gifts for birthdays, weddings and anniversaries in the form of watercolour paintings and wall Art. Ruth was able to capture the sentiment in her work and give me a beautiful unique piece of Art each time which will be cherished.
