I create art to honour the sacredness of life. I play with lines, creatures, colour and form to enliven the everyday and shake off the numbing effects of stress culture. I love art that is humble and honest and hope you find these qualities in my work.

I work as Scríobhaí / Scribe, continuing the ancient tradition of illuminating what's important. I honour the ups and downs in people's lives: the births, deaths, weddings, thank yous and well wishes that weave through our days. Contact me to avail of my services as scribe.

I make paper with grasses and seaweed and paint organic forms on it. I weave bog-grass and sea-grass funerary urns, and partner with others on educational folklore booklets. I also paint on wood and stone.

Aoife Fia

I live a simple life of prayer, meditation, cleansing and nature connection. I am focused on raising the vibration of humanity through presence and sacred art.

In my newsletter I offer stories and new art every few weeks.
