One of the greatest forwards of the last decade, Joyce was a lethal scorer from both play and placed balls. Winner of 2 All-Ireland's, 6 Connacht titles and 3 All Stars, the Killererin man retired from the Galway colours in 2012.

Three brothers that were the backbone of the Kerry football team over the last decade. Midfielder Darragh retired a couple of years ago, but brothers Tomás and Marc still don the green and gold. Plenty of All-Ireland medals in the Ó Sé household.
Pen outline again for this one. It's always the ones you don't expect. I posted this image to twitter and Facebook and it became, by an absolute country mile, the most popular illustration I've done so far.
I decided to do an illustration of Liam Spratt after seeing the pictures from the recent Wexford GAA awards night where Liam was the MC on the night. Liam Spratt always brings a unique style to his commentary-saying the first thing that pops into his head a lot of the time and gets totally engrossed in the game unfolding before his eyes. This often leads to his now infamous commentating slip ups. No referee is safe, Co-commentators had better finish their point quick and the tea served out had better be of decent quality when the man Spratt is about. I threw in a few of his more famous quotes but there will always be additions as long as Liam has the microphone. Let's hope that's for a long time to come. Along with Peter Canavan, Mickey Linden of Down was my favourite footballer when I was growing up. Pictured here on a typical bursting solo run
Illustration of 2012 All Star nominee, Wexford and Gusserane's Panther Flynn. Pictured here in typical pose as he looks to go on the attack. Happy with the shadows and highlights in this one, something I always find difficult enough to do,
Zinedine Zidane scoring THAT fantastic goal for Real Madrid in the 2002 UEFA Champions League final against Bayer Leverkusen.
Cartoon interpretation of Kerry's Colm 'Gooch' Cooper. One of the most skillful footballers ever.
Encapsulated here as he is about to take a free kick in the surroundings of Croke Park. Another early GAA memory from 1994 when Leitrim won their first Connacht title since 1927 with 31 counties shouting on the men in gold. Iconic image here of the captain, Declan Darcy lifting the cup with the 1927 captain Tom Gannon.
