Bridget's flower paintings are distinctive for their semi-abstracted, close-cropped representation. Each piece, while appearing spontaneous, is exquisitely worked with a harmonious balance in both colour and light as she brings a contemporary sensibility to a timeless subject. Her background and experience in natural history illustration is evident in the keen observation.
Bridget Flinn studied Fine Art at the National College of Art and Design in Dublin and later at the Royal College of Art in London.
