A #painting from a series I did of a bay in the west of Ireland. "Bertraghboy Bay 5" came out of a day cycling in Connemara where I was on a high from the incessant beauty of it all as every bay and mountain came into view. #art #SpeirGhorm #ArtAdventCalendar

Day 8, #artadventcalendar This is Pickering 1992, from a photo I took following a massive blizzard in December 1992. Sadly this view no longer exists due to everything being developed with subdivisions.

In Celtic folklore, the goddess Brigantia has the badger as her sacred animal totem. This connection highlights new life, wisdom, and the emergence of spring. The badger is an earth-dwelling creature that symbolises new life emerging from beneath the earth.

#ArtAdventCalendar The only watercolour I've done this year was another surprise gift, this time for my sister in law. Her grandsons. It's a different challenge when you're painting for someone else.
