'STITCHED PORTRUSH KERR STREET' Giclée Print
Description
This is a museum quality, fine art giclée print featuring Kerr Street - one of Portrush's oldest streets, as viewed from the north pier of Portrush harbour. Kerr Street was named after Lord Mark Kerr, a vice admiral in the navy, whose wife inherited the town during the 18th century. Frankie's original artwork was composed of pen and ink together with hand and free machine stitching and forms part of her contemporary series.
Stitched Portrush Kerr Street giclée print is available unframed or framed in a glazed white wooden handcrafted frame. Unframed prints are carefully rolled into a protective postal tube or presented in cellophane wrap.

She now lives just a stone’s throw away in the seaside peninsula town of Portrush on the Causeway Coast, where her artwork and art gifts including handcrafted jewellery, is showcased in her own art gallery on Portrush’s Main Street.
An art school graduate of Ulster University Belfast, Frankie is best known for her ‘mixed-media textile’ artwork which incorporates fabrics, papers, paint, inks, wax, resin and all manner of media through collage, fusing, layering, and finally embellishing with both free machine and hand stitch.
Since graduating she has continued to develop her creative practice, whilst working as an ‘Artist in Residence’ for the Education Boards and Arts Council of Northern Ireland for over 20 years and has taken on numerous art commissions including Irish landscapes, landmarks and equine portraits.
