Bio

Ursula McCormack was born in Dublin in 1971, as a child, she loved art and spent most of her childhood drawing or painting. She had dreams of going to art college, but her path took a dif-ferent direction. In 1992, she moved to Manchester and married; bringing up three children and pursuing a successful career in childcare. She went back to university as a mature student and secured an honours degree in psychology and had hoped to undertake her PhD. Life takes us in different directions and when her mum became terminally ill Ursula gave up her PhD to travel between the UK and Ireland to care for her mum. Losing her beloved mum left a huge gap and Ursula turned to art to help fill the void in her life. In the summer of 2018, she began to research acrylic fluid art. Loving the idea that people see art differently, especially in respect of abstract art it opened a whole new way of creating. Fluid acrylic art is a way of expressing the feelings in-side of her and working with this medium to create unique artwork. She is inspired by nature and the glory of everyday colours and how colours mix and flow. No matter how many times you use the same colour pallet you can never recreate a piece. Moving on to try new techniques Ur-sula started to use resin as an art medium. The resin creates a multi-dimensional piece of art, though layering different colours. Ursula recently hosted a highly successful exhibition at the Station Gallery in Clitheroe, the Ideal Home Show London, and is to be shown in Athens and Cambridge in July.. Her work can be seen in Homes and Gardens, Vogue and London Life mag-azines. Recently she has been on BBC northwest tonight, BBC radio lancashire and Aesthetica Magazine.
