John McCarthy

John McCarthy was born in London, England and now lives in Meath.

Even though his occupation was largely in construction he always had an admiration & interest in art. John would regularly paint & draw in his spare time. He was, at this stage, largely self taught.

As a result of a life changing accident, in 1994, John decided to pursue his interest in art which included two years of night classes in stained glass at NCAD. Since then, he has worked on many stained glass commissions. At present John is designing & making 18 windows for an oratory in Birr, County Offaly.

He has also given classes in stained glass & mosaics.
