In this video, my dad talks about the village that he lived his life in. My inspiration and creativity comes from having grown up in our family coach building yard in Tempo, Northern Ireland.

Launch of Master Artisan Woodcraftsman, Gabriel McKeagney's site

January 20, 2014

Today marks the launch of the official site of Gabriel McKeagney, Master Artisan Woodcraftsman. Gabriel McKeagney hails from the County Fermanagh in Northern Ireland and from five-generations of family members known for their skills in woodwork, blacksmithing and masonry. Having an affinity for wood, art and math, it was an easy decision for Gabriel to leave school at 15 years old to begin his full-time apprenticeship as a master woodworker.
