Monkey with Headphones (after Banksy) by David O'Brien, Ceramic Mosaic Artwork

Description

David O’Brien creates mosaic artworks that are influenced by his own passions such as iconic music album covers, fine works of art, rare racing cars, retro posters and iconic buildings.  His attention to detail, discipline and patience are paramount in producing each piece. Every mosaic work is totally unique and made with immense attention to detail. O’Brien is not satisfied unless he is happy himself to display each completed work in his own home. The artist relishes each and every stage from the initial idea through to completion but often changing and evolving the plan during the process.

Born in Liverpool, O’Brien went to school at St Margaret’s in Aigburth. In his early years, football was his passion – captaining his school football team and playing against players such as Steve McManaman and Robbie Fowler amongst others.

During a holiday in the 1990’s to Barcelona, David O’Brien visited various tourist attractions including Antoni Gaudi’s Park Guell; it was here that a passion for mosaic art was first founded.

Now living in rural Bickerstaffe in Lancashire, married to Kim and Dad of Lawrie and Olivia, David O’Brien’s artwork is going from strength to strength. Exhibited by a variety of galleries in the UK, David’s work is held in private collections across the country and in New York.
