Irish artist Laurence O'Toole, Carlow

Laurence O'Toole is a self taught painter, living and working in Bagenalstown, Co. Carlow. He has exhibited extensively in Ireland, England and the USA.

His work is concerned with the human condition and how we fit into modern living, how the pattern in nature is our heartbeat, our connection and if there is one thing that resonates about the human condition... it is that we need to feel connected.
