Artist Don Conroy has been teaching people to draw on YouTube since the Covid19 restrictions

Dublin-born artist Don Conroy has been a familiar face since the days of The Den, and he's continued to work as an artist and an author over the decades, having amassed a huge body of work. Don now lives in Wicklow Town and since the restrictions he's been teaching people to draw on YouTube. He's also written over 50 children's books and last  weekend, he gave a Zoom drawing class through Garter Lane.  You can find out more about him here through his website.
