Eleanor McCaughey trained at the Ballyfermot College of Art and the Irish Academy of Figurative Art. Her work has been seen in group exhibitions in Ireland and the USA and was selected for the Royal Ulster Academy Annual Exhibition 2008.

The portrait is of McCaughey’s friend, Frances. McCaughey’s aim was to show the different aspects of Frances’s personality from her relaxed expression with a mischievous glint in her eye. McCaughey says ‘her t-shirt is fun and off-beat, reflecting Frances’s cheerful nature.’
