George Callaghan was born in County Antrim, Northern Ireland in 1941. George left school at 15 to work at Nicholson and Bass as an apprentice Commercial Artist. A year later he commenced studying Art at the Belfast College of Art on a Scholarship.
After studing at Belfast College of Art George started work in Dublin as a designer. Callaghan then left for London before continuing this career for a number of years working in Australia for a number of leading advertising agencies as an Art Director. At the age of 32 he then moved to the Australian Island State of Tasmania where he has lived for the last 27 years. The move to Tasmania prompted a big change in Callaghan's career. He set up a studio, which he still maintains today, and also starting to make musical instruments – becoming an accomplished harp player. He now enjoys the reputation of being Australia's leading Harp maker and a leading exponent of the Celtic Harp. Recordings of his harp music include two compact discs, 'Traditional Airs', and 'Rhyme and Reason' along with several cassettes. However, it is Callaghan's paintings that have created consistent interest over the years. His paintings whether in Acrylic, Oil or Pastel all exude a certain quirkiness and narrative with his native Northern Ireland roots very evident. Today George Callaghan spends three months of every year in Ireland and Britain in order to explore his roots in art and music. In addition to Red Rag Irish Art Gallery George Callaghan has exhibited at other leading Irish Art Galleries and many galleries overseas. Each painting at Red Rag is sourced from the George Callaghan artist studio and like all Red Rag Irish art and Contemporary art it can be shipped worldwide.
