Although I’ve got Celtic heritage, it was a couple of years with a base in Dublin and travels around Ireland that allowed me to explore the many beautiful Celtic carvings that Ireland has to offer. From the amazing illuminated art in the Book of Kells, to those carved in stone or painted on old pub signs in towns and villages, you cannot miss Celtic knots. With no identifiable beginning or ending, their infinite pathway is often translated as symbolic of the unending cycle of life. Thousands of tiny acrylic ink dots, drawn with a vintage dip pen inherited from my mum, were spaced out or layered up create the depth of the intertwining knot work of the Book of Kells-inspired Celtic Beast, whilst boughs of vibrant, watercolour pencil variegated green ivy leaves trail over it, as a nod to nature reclaiming the manmade stone carving as its own.

Each art card is printed in the UK by an FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) certified printing company, with a zero waste to landfill ethos, using responsibly sourced FSC medium to heavyweight smooth board and supplied with an FSC heavyweight paper envelope. Each art card is directly digitally printed (using XXXXX TYPE INKS), thereby avoiding the more traditional use of printing plates or photo chemicals. Since we usually exhibit at quite a few outdoor events, art cards you buy from us at events are wrapped in a protective plastic sleeve out of necessity to shield the card from damage by the elements. This sleeve is manufactured from thin, crystal clear polypropylene (PP5); a recyclable plastic. However, please check with your local authority to see if it is recyclable in your area. PP5 polypropylene is commonly recycled into the manufacture of automotive parts, plastic trays, shipping containers, bike racks, garden rakes, storage bins and many other common items. Cards ordered on this website may be supplied “naked” without each card being enclosed in an individual protective sleeve, but any art cards in an order will be packed in a polypropylene protective outer as a “pack” to avoid them getting marked or wet in transit in the typical British weather that we enjoy! This packaging will be kept to a minimum. Heavyweight envelopes are supplied with each card and are made from FSC paper. We usually use plain white or pearlescent white/cream envelopes. Art cards are shipped in a board backed envelope or postal box as appropriate and are not gift packaged.
