Bio

Stephen Cullen has been a full-time painter since 1982.  He paints in oil on canvas and his preoccupations are to do with colour and texture.   Writing for the Irish Times, Aidan Dunne called Stephen an “unabashed colourist” in his Visual Art Review of the year (1998) and the Irish Arts Review echoed that sentiment, calling him a “superb colourist”.
