TONY BISHOP - Illustrator

Tony has been drawing and painting since his earliest childhood. Throughout his school years he studied art and he chose Art as one of his subjects for the Leaving Certificate.

When an accident to his hand at the age of 19 obliged him to spend many months in Melbourne having it surgically repaired, he had formal tuition. This not only honed his skills as an artist and cartoonist, it also helped him transfer these skills from his damaged left hand to his hitherto unused right hand. He has drawn and painted with his right hand ever since to wonderful effect.
