Sounds in the Night

Patricia is an artist who lives in Kilkenny with her husband and three children. Originally from Leixlip, County Kildare, she is a third generation artist whose father, Liam Keely, taught her to look beyond the obvious and see the magic in everything; to find the faces in the stones and the sky. Patricia is drawn to the beauty of the natural world where imagination is free to perceive the life within - the Fungalbods have sprung from such perception. The Fungalbods are mushrooms that have the spirit of our faeries and the personality & mischievousness of the modern-day Irish person. They transcend the barrier between mythology and reality by incorporating qualities from both. Patricia currently has three Fungalbod stories published - Plop's Hat, One Final Gift, and A Little Bit of Air. She is planning on publishing a new Fungalbod adventure early next year.
