That’s a wrap- safely tucking my louboutin heels away for the night after the most amazing launch evening in my new gallery.

Thank you to my amazing friends & family and all who came tonight - a massive shout out to my right hand man, Shane Morgan and guest of honour Paul Moneypenny. Roll on opening our doors to the public tomorrow!

Dream come true

Tonight I will stand behind my counter in @jrooneyartandhome for the first time and welcome my first guests into my stunning new gallery and venture.

This genuinely is a dream come true for me and I’m overwhelmed by the kind and thoughtful messages & gestures of support.

I really hope I can continue to inspire others to follow their dreams and keep adding colour and happiness to the world through my Art.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Following my recent collaboration with the fabulous @jay_n_co to see my Art on luxury velvet and incorporated in the design of these bespoke statement chairs makes my heart dance!

Each one is unique and I can’t wait to share them with you when we open the doors of my new gallery @jrooneyartandhome next week!

Until then, you might sneak a peek in the windows!

I hope they brighten your day as much as they do mine!

I’m so excited to announce that the absolutely fabulous Interior designer Paul Moneypenny, as seen on this year’s BBC2 Interior Design Masters, is officially opening my new gallery and shop @jrooneyartandhome

He will cut the ribbon on the launch evening on 30th of June ready for the official opening on 1st July.

I feel honoured to have him on board to reopen this beautiful building again.

I had a lovely morning holding interviews in @jrooneyartandhome

I can’t wait to add my new Art Gallery Assistant to my team.

After painters, plasterers, electricians, plumbers & cleaners have worked their magic in @jrooneyartandhome the fun bit starts-the interior!

I’m so excited to see my vision unfold.

I’m so excited to be starting to hang my Art in my new gallery, @jrooneyartandhome

So much has gone into getting it to this stage and it is all so worth it when you see it coming together!

I can’t wait to open my doors to on 1st July to share this exquisite building with you all!

The power of colour....

What do you think of the new colours on my gallery?

Still lots to do but it’s really taking shape.

I can’t contain my excitement to share more information about my new venture.

In a few weeks I will be opening the doors of the stunning period property in Rostrevor.

It will include;

*A gallery/shop/showroom where you can view and buy my Art and luxury homeware range alongside a selection of carefully curated pieces from other makers.

*A meeting room for hire for private events, available for businesses to host training events, client meetings and workshops. I plan to host a series of creative workshops here too and have some exciting collaborations to announce very soon.

*A flexible coworking office space, which will be perfect for entrepreneurs, freelancers and remote workers to collaborate and connect. It will include tea/coffee lunch making facilities and a variety of hiring options will be available.

More updates will follow. Thank you for your amazing words of encouragement and support. They mean the world to me.
