ABOUT THE ARTIST






"My aim is to transport the viewer to another time and place, allowing them to escape their everyday lives and find sanctuary within the artwork."
~ Alice O’Shea
​
I’ve loved art for as long as I can remember.
Born in 1993 in Cambridge, UK, I now live and work in Lincolnshire. From an early age, I found joy and peace in drawing—spending hours sketching and experimenting with every medium I could get my hands on. Every birthday and Christmas brought new supplies, and I never ran out of ideas. Art became my sanctuary.
Naturally, it was always my favourite subject in school, and I went on to study Fine Art at the Cambridge School of Art, graduating from Anglia Ruskin University in 2015.
In 2016, I began working at sea, travelling the world aboard cruise ships—an experience that profoundly shaped my early work. Since then, my life has taken on another unique shape: I’m now a proud military spouse, and our life involves relocating every few years. Amidst the change and upheaval that come with this lifestyle, art has remained my constant—a grounding force that keeps me connected, inspired, and expressive no matter where we are.
Over time, my style and subject matter have evolved, but my aim has remained the same: to evoke a sense of nostalgia and offer viewers an escape from the everyday. Each piece I create is rooted in the themes of sanctuary and storytelling—a visual world to step into, rest within, and feel transported by.
While my projects vary in subject, they are united by a consistent artistic voice, a love of history, and a desire to tell meaningful stories. I often create bodies of work around specific themes, allowing one idea to flow naturally into the next as research and curiosity guide me forward.


I was Lucky enough to be selected as a wildcard artist on Sky Arts; Landscape Artist of the Year.

Taking place in July 2021; I had the most incredible time taking part in the show and painting at the Eden Project in Cornwall. A highlight of the day was being interviewed by Joan Bakewell.
