Bridget Flannery (born 1959) is an Irish painter working in abstract painting. Mark Ewart says: "She is not a landscape painter in the strictest sense of the word," but both he and fellow critic Aidan Dunne say that her work is influenced by landscapes or seascapes.[1][2] She studied at the Crawford College of Art, and Design Cork.[3] She has exhibited across Ireland and internationally.[4] Her work was included in the exhibition "Cork Art Now '85" at the Crawford Municipal Art Gallery and then traveled to the Heineken Gallery in Amsterdam.[5]
