The Pain in my Chest

Written by Áine Murray, Illustrated by Bronagh Lee

But I’ve always been stopped

By the Pain in my Chest …

An uplifting story of how children can beat those anxious feelings

Áine Murray is a primary school teacher from Navan, Co. Meath. She received her Bachelor of Psychology and her Professional Masters in Education at Maynooth University. Áine has always loved working with young children and, as a teacher, has a keen interest in helping young people to understand the importance of positive relationships and normalising mental health.

Bronagh Lee is a visual artist working in illustration, book design, drawing and painting. She graduated from NCAD with a BA Hons in Printmaking in 2016, followed by a course in Graphic Design.

Her work is playful, whimsical and fluid, a process she marries with a keenly observed layering of detail. Her illustrations evoke a sense of poignancy and old-world charm that is subtly blended with her own individual contemporary style of textured warmth, colour and movement.

Bronagh mixes a digital and analogue world to create work that explodes with colour, texture and vivid life as though viewed through a softened lens of innocence and childlike joy.

Bronagh has illustrated a number of books including ‘The Tree by the Sea’ series by Debbie Deegan and ‘Rosie’s Magic Umbrella’ by Karen Ryan.
