TUESDAY SPED out to Stillorgan to enjoy an award-winning exhibition. A year ago Open House staged a nationwide competition inviting artists to submit six slides of their work. The judges selected one supremely gifted artist out of the thousands who entered. Enniskillen born artist Claire Falconer was pick of the bunch.

By the time I arrive a host of Claire's watercolour self portraits wore red.
