Sometimes I am amazed at how a painting comes out and I don’t know how and why?🖌️
Stroke by stroke, layer by layer paint lays on canvas…
Until, as by magic, you see or hear something… that joins the dots together… This is exactly what happened with this painting – “Grian – Celtic Goddess of the Sun”… I only understood the meaning behind it when I read one beautiful poem…

Let me introduce you to my new painting Grian – the Celtic goddess of the sun. In the modern Irish language her name literally means ‘sun’. Her power awakens earth’s fertility; she sanctifies the land with her love and bathes the children of the earth in a warm glow.
