edit data

Matthew Griffin was born in Dublin in 1979, grew up in Kells, Co.Meath and now lives in Ennis.

He has garnered a reputation as one of the most eclectic graphic artists in contemporary illustration, collecting awards and accolades for his work in publishing, film and, in particular, the field of poster art. His passion for visual design was always married to one for writing.

His first children’s novel, A Cage of Roots, was published in 2015. Storm Weaver followed the same characters further into a fantasy odyssey (2016), and The Spiral Path brings the enemy through a time portal to modern-day Ireland.
