Lynne Bye

Lynne Bye
Hi, my name is Lynne-Marie Bye and welcome to my colourful world. I have a creative passion for things vibrant and bold, and this translates into my felt paintings.
I am based in the Northwest of Ireland where we have an abundance of nature, with our rugged coastline, sweeping mountains, sparkling rivers, unpredictable weather and of course sheep.
My felt paintings incorporate many wools including Merino, Gotland, Mohair, Suffolk and more. I make use of shiny fibres, embroidery silks and yarns to highlight the features, using a combination of machine and hand embroidery.
For my foundation years I studied at the Isle of Ely College, Cambridgeshire, then moving on to Loughborough College of Art to study ceramics. I have certainly come a long way since those days.
My felt paintings have travelled near and far and bring a little piece of home to their inheritors.

Margaret Rattigan
Margaret Rattigan is the artist and creator behind Margaret Rattigan Art.
Based in Boyle, County Roscommon, she creates original Irish landscapes, florals, seascapes, and wildlife paintings inspired by the beauty and nostalgia of the Northwest. Her work often evokes a memory , a sense of time, place, and emotion – capturing moments “where art meets heart.”
After more than 35 years in retail management, Margaret followed her lifelong dream to become a full-time artist. Alongside her paintings, she designs limited edition prints, fine art cards, and unique art jewellery, all crafted with care and authenticity.
One of her earliest pieces, Full Moon over Lough Key, was inspired by an island in the nearby Forest Park, close to where she lives. There is a sense of magic about Lough Key , its still waters, mysterious castle, and ever-changing light and Margaret sought to capture that enchantment in her painting.
Her work has since found homes across Ireland and abroad, each piece bringing a little light, joy, and connection to those who see it.
