This much I know: Mick O’Dea, Artist

I’m confident enough not to be a perfectionist. I move on with things. Try and get them done.

I always knew I wanted to go to art college, although I didn’t quite know what that meant until around the time I sat my Intermediate Certificate. After that, I became determined to go.

Growing up in Ennis, I was a mixture of an outgoing and an introverted child. I was naturally shy but learned how to deal with the public from a young age, as I helped out with the family businesses.
