Despite being from a small rural village, McAuley pursued painting from an early age, in an area where farming was one of the main sources of life and income. Early in his life he was spotted by James H. Craig at a local Glens Feis who encouraged him and inspired his early work.

There are several of his paintings in public collections such as Ulster Museum and Queens University Belfast.
