Pat Bracken RIP

Hi there! Scroll down for more posts, or you can jump to my wedding entertainment here, my wedding signing boards here, and my gift caricatures here. Become a fan on Facebook! me for a quote!


Galway based puppeteer and stone mason Pat Bracken passed away yesterday. Many would know Pat from Quay Street, where his raucous puppets bantered with passers-by, and he was a regular fixture in the Macnas Parade, running ahead and warming up the crowd.
I don’t know any details of arrangements yet but will post them here when that changes.

Here’s a couple of avatars I designed for the Facebook and Twitter profiles of Gort-based easyschoolbooks.ie, which launches this weekend.

A bit of GAA rivalry!


A surprise present for a wedding this week.

Retirement Present for an Audiologist!


I based the hearing aids on what I remember my grandad wearing. They must have been top of the range at the time as they seemed to have a selective hearing setting, and could be fine-tuned to the mention of tea!

Retirement Present for a Guard!


Apparently he found it an arresting likeness.
