Grateful to my Garden

Each part of the plant shows the efforts of a hard day’s work under an iron blanket. Thank you for the effort.

Preparing the scoured cotton

There’s great drying in that wind.

Preparing the fabric with metal salt solutions to create strong and lasting affinity between the canvas and the plant’s form and colour.

Summer is soooooo generous!

The warmth of the evening time colours after a balmy summer day does the heart good.

Beachcombing Inspiration

A treasure trove of inspiration from Cregg Beach, Clare

Great day foraging at Cregg Beach, Clare with Liam McNamara (Burren Shores), Dr. Simon Berrow (IWDG) and Laura Foster (Banner Gleo). It’s amazing what you see when you look down - mermaid’s purses, pilot whale and basking shark vertebrae, fossils, bird skulls and so much more!
