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. This endless Triquetra (3 cornered) knot, with no visible beginning or end, was seen as a sign of the Trinity (the circle representing the unity of the 3 forces) or shamrock. Using a vintage dip pen inherited from my mum, thousands of tiny acrylic ink dots were drawn; spaced out or layered up to create the depth of the intertwining triangular Triquetra knot work, which is embellished with the vibrant, watercolour pencil green foliage of Dicentra (Bleeding Heart).
