Cappagh, Kerry. Ireland Drawing

I was born and live in Ireland. I lived in Kerry for many years, surrounded my the mystical mountains of Brandon. I returned to Sligo in Ireland to a quiet village .I choose to live in the country surrounded by the beauty of nature. I hope the viewer gets a sense of wonder and awe I feel when I am sitting in the landscape. I wish to express the mystery , the magnificence and the preciousness of our world to the viewer. Our planet is precious. Mother nature must be treated with kindness and respect. I I collect twigs and driftwood as I walk in nature and I burn in a tin box to make my own charcoal. I love this idea of giving new life to the old dead wood and also in drawing trees using parts of the tree itself.
