This pencil drawing is of Tom Crean, nicknamed the "Irish Giant" (20 July 1877 - 27 July 1938) was an Irish seaman and Antarctic explorer from Annascaul, County Kerry. I was commissioned to undertake this work in 2012 - it was a gift to her husband on a very special birthday!!. Following on this, we had a great day out together at the South Pole Inn (Tom Crean's public house in the village of Annascaul) where we had a lovely fish & chip!!!. Lovely memories. A set of limited edition prints, signed and stamped by the artist, is available; email Mícheál for full details.
