🧵 I love vibrant colours & the excitement they provide, as well as learning about the mythology & art of ancient Gaelic times. Such as at Glendalough [my pic]. These things have a massive impact on my own art.

You’ll see that influence in this thread of one-off ink drawings if you scroll down! [1]

🧵 The wind blows in from thousands of miles of Atlantic Ocean over Kerry [pic]. Watching the clouds dance & swirl is magnificent!

The Irish landscape, its mythology & Celtic culture inform my art, as you can see in this thread, if you scroll down! [1]

🧵 life is how you look at it. Thus drawing emphasises that. Some see it as a figure falling, whereas I drew it as a figure rising - rising above anxieties, stress & pressures. This an uplifting work!

🧵 This is a 2,000y old Celtic gold boat from Ireland. It’s my talisman as an artist. The proportions & curves inform my work, as does the design & art ideas of my ancestors, who arrived here 2,500y ago.

A campaign t-shirt designed to camouflage you - hell of a choice. To be fair he might poll more votes than Humphreys!

Don’t worry John’s gospel makes it clear that he & Jesus Christ were lovers. He’d be a bit stunned by this nonsense. Yet again a self-identified ‘Christian’ hasn’t read the Bible about ‘the disciple whom Jesus loved’

The pandemic demonstrated we could do without billionaires, but food producers & supermarket staff were critical to survive. Any reevaluation of society needs to reflect the importance of those who carry society on their back. It’s not about ‘socialism’ it’s about insuring our collective futures!
