'Sayyedati' - This was a prize-winning oil on canvas that the Artist undertook in 1992 that went on to claim first prize in the famous Moyglare Studs Stakes Art Competition. He had taken first prize in Munster the previous two years and had finally achieved top National Prize in Ireland on my third attempt. The original framed piece was presented to the owner, Mohamed Obaida, at a gala dinner at the Berkley Court Hotel in Dublin where the Artist was presented with a cheque for £1,000 and a silver salver. A set of limited edition prints, signed and stamped by the artist, is available; email Mícheál for full details.
