The same year he exhibited at the IELA, where the Times commented on his highly competent ballerinas" which had a "flavour of the old-fashioned salon about them". Laffan was treasurer with Independent Artists and exhibited with them in Trinity College, Dublin in 1973 and Project Arts Centre, 1975. Heads - executed in a variety of materials - became the artist`s focus for a ten year period from 1974-1984. He showed at the Oireachtas in 1978 a 2.4m high bog oak piece called Maighdean Dubh. In 1984 he retuned to Australia where he made landscape and portrait sketches. Female torsos in bog oak and walnut feature in his final years. He died in Dublin in 1988 aged 70. "
