That was me.

I'm painting a tribute to Don Conroy and Draw With Don.

There's an initiative every year called Dublin Canvas and they give a shout out or a call out for artists to send in designs for traffic light boxes and it's a deterrent for people that are actually graffitiing the boxes.

So you send in a design and if it gets picked

You've either picked a location for the box or they help you pick a location.

And so I put in a design this year.

It's called Drawing on Nostalgia.

Thank you, Don.

So it's a tribute to Don Conroy and Draw with Don that I used to watch religiously every Wednesday.

What effect did Don Conroy have on you?

Oh, massive.

Absolutely huge.

Because when I was a wee nipper, I used to watch it all the time.

And he had... He just made drawing fun.

And not just drawing, but he instilled environmentalism and birdwatching.

And there was so much...

And they are still things that I'm doing now at the sprightly young age of 40.

But so it was massive.

So that was the first real, what can I say, stepping into drawing and realising drawing was fun.

Do you know what?
