Happy Winter Solstice everyone.
One of my first oil paintings from 1996 of Avebury where I went to primary school. Being there had a profound influence on my work.

An 'extraordinary' wind at Tarbat, Easter Ross, broke an 'obelisk' #OTD in 1674, according to local Sir George MacKenzie. Research by Sally Foster suggests this was the Hilton of Cadboll Pictish cross-slab, whose break left its lower section buried. 📸National Museums Scotland #medievalsky

St. Patricks Graveyard • Kilmovee • Mayo
In the east of County Mayo, near the Roscommon border, you can find the remains of a small medieval church set within a historic graveyard that has been in use for centuries.
An atmospheric place where you can feel a deep well of time.

Corylopsis spicata is much the same, but grows rather taller, up to 6' and is, if anything, more frost resistant. #gardening

The magical life of Toni Basil: how she taught Elvis, enchanted Bowie – and had a smash hit with ‘Mickey’
The woman Quentin Tarantino called ‘the goddess of go-go’ is one of the most connected and accomplished in Hollywood. At 82, she recalls working with Tina Turner, Bette Midler, Frank Sinatra, David Byrne, Margot Robbie, Leonardo DiCaprio – the list goes on – and the time Bing Crosby made a pass at her

Here are just a few of my favourite sites from early medieval Ireland, all dating between c.400–1170 AD.

A #Roman rock crystal ring decorated with a crescent and stars inlaid with gold foil - it looks like an emoji 🤩, but for the Romans this wasn’t just decoration. The motif was associated with death: crescent and stars were symbols for eternity and afterlife.
