As the election results came in I was in Berlin with people from across the world that have known the devastation of dictators. You know what advice they gave me? Do good. Every day in whatever way you can. Don't stop. These leaders will fall. Be ready to rise from the ashes with something better.

A few years ago I made a series of mini drawings of interesting Irish women (available as a print here www.ciaraioch.com/artprints/p/...) - this thread is a little information on the women featured, partly because it's useful, but mostly because I'm trying to be sustainable by recycling content.
