Eoghan trained at Galway RTC and also studied abroad in Tuscany. He has undertaken various commissions for public bodies and prominent collectors. He is a sculptor in stone, steel, glass and concrete. His work is marked by an organic synergy of the material and the will. He explores the technical capacities of the tactile and tangible, investing it with a vital life force and spiritual dynamism. His hands-on approach runs the gamut, and he is as at home filing with a small riffler as he is with operating a track machine to move a ten-ton stone. Like his father, he enjoys exploring new materials and methods, most recently stained glass in conjunction with his significant role in executing the stained glass windows in St. Brendan's Church in Fenit and St. Mary's Cathedral in Killarney. He now faces the additional challenges of raising identical triplet boys.

Siobhán obtained an MA degree from Durham University in Archaeology focusing on Prehistoric Art. Following her profession, she has worked as an educator at the National Museum of Ireland. In addition, she helps her mother with the consultancy and marketing aspects of the family business, travelling abroad on occasion to do so. When time permits, she avails of her father's guidance in his knowledge of digital imagery and has created images of her own. A piece was once exhibited at the National Museum. She has two children, and when they were toddlers themselves, established the first play cafe for toddlers in Dublin called Panda Play Cafe. After nine years and the challenges of the coronavirus restrictions, the small chain of cafes was closed. Siobhán now owns her own coffee business called Bean Inspired Coffee Roasters. She buys coffee grown by female producers around the world, and invests in programs to help these women have more access to finances, business resources, education, and a fair marketplace.

D'Ana gained a BA with Honours at University College Dublin in the History of Art and Archaeology. She works in sculpture, painting and printmaking and has entered and won numerous competitions from the age of five, exhibiting in such venues as the National Museum at Collins Barracks, the IMMA, and the Belgravia Gallery, London. Simplicity is her hallmark and a sense of the infinite and cosmic. Her work in stone is sensual and dramatic, reflecting a deep understanding of form and ethereal insight. Her textural paintings are evocative and emotive. Utilising the very demanding medium of the mezzotint, her prints are marked by high finish and attention to detail. Her two year old is already starting to draw.

Elizabeth, O'Donoghue/Ross' wife, manages the day-to-day matters of the business. She has been fondly called the 'critic' in the family. She is a retired master printer, having printed the editions of O'Donoghue/Ross' early graphic work, and she has been known to pick up a brush or a lump of clay when help was needed. She played a significant role in assisting the preparation of the model of St. Brendan for casting. She has been a Director of the Clans of Ireland and has been on the Editorial Committee of the Kerry Archaeological and Historical Society for their Kerry Magazine, where she and Tighe have been contributors, as well as that Society's Journal and other publications. She and Tighe are long-standing members of the Council of The O'Donoghue Society.
