Ciara is a first class honours graduate of the MTU Cork School of Music BMUS 2005 and has worked in the professional music scene since then, both as a music instructor, vocal coach, professional singer, and piano accompanist. While art has always been a part of her life, it was in 2017 that the passion firmly took hold and she began a journey of discovery into the mysteries of abstract art. Puzzled and intrigued by how a seemingly simple collection of colours and marks on a canvas could make her feel, she now endeavours to allow her inner child to play and explore the possibilities of form and colour for herself.
