‘A COASTAL VIEW OF WEST COAST IRELAND’
By Geraldine Crimmins

Geraldine is in her sixties and has struggled with drug addiction and been homeless twice, living on the streets around Victoria in London. Now she’s clean and lives in a housing association flat. She is artist in residence at Old Diorama Arts Centre in London until the end of October. Geraldine sells her artworks at the Bayswater Road Sunday Art Exhibition.
