I’m Eileen Morey, and this is my art.

Here is one of my most recent projects, related to mailart:

The Moon Series – A digital installation of art/cards

What Inspires Me

My art often starts with an emotional reaction to something I see, hear, or imagine. Almost immediately, I’m building a creative vision around it… and usually, it’s something I’m eager to share with others.

As I work with that creative vision, it’s as if the external connects with what’s internal… perhaps even spiritual.

It might be a passion.

It might be whimsy.

It might be something else altogether, but it’s rooted in a deep, personal response to something around me.

I work in a variety of media.

Here are some examples…

DRAWINGS

Though I often joke that “they just come out of the pen,” they’re usually triggered by a deep urge, related to self-expression. The finished work may have no obvious connection with what sparked it.

For example, this is from my Pandorica series (ref: Dr. Who). It’s pen and ink on paper, and about 10″ x 10″.

PAINTINGS

My paintings vary widely, depending upon my mood and the purpose of the painting. When the light is “just so” or a detail fascinates me within a larger context, I strive to convey the beauty of the moment, usually in a landscape.

This is one of my sunset sketches, capturing the light from our living room window when we lived in Tilton, New Hampshire. It’s on an 8″ x 10″ canvas board. (Click on the image to learn more about it.)

Other paintings include extensions of my pen-and-ink sketches and drawings.  For example, here’s one painting based on my “Pandorica” series of drawings.

MIXED-MEDIA COLLAGES

My collages have evolved from my love of personal art journaling.

Most of them – usually crafted with torn paper – find resonance in a single image, word, phrase, or texture. That’s the starting point.

After that, I typically focus on the rhythm of the elements. It might be color, mood, or an image that connects me with a powerful memory.

(Frankly, those words sound more lofty than the actual art process. Working with collage, I’ll see a word or image that resonates, and then say out loud, “Ooh, I like that!” without examining why it got my attention.)

I’m currently working on a book of my collages; it should be available later in 2026. It will be published under my pen name of Aisling D’Art, as well as Eileen Morey, the name of my birth certificate.

(“Aisling D’Art” is a nom de plume I adopted in the early days of the Internet, for privacy. Frankly, there weren’t very many women online, back then, and it seemed prudent not to use my real name. So many people know me as Aisling, I still use that name on much of my art, especially the experimental pieces.)

PHOTOGRAPHY

Since childhood, I’ve loved photography. Today, I take pictures for the delight of seeing the world through my lens. However, my photos have also been featured on book covers, and appeared as illustrations inside books, as well.

Here are some of my recent photos from Maine.
