Here are some quick camera snaps from my artistic archive.

I found them in an old sketchbook that I kept with me while I was living in paris a few years ago. They are more iconographic with a few celtic references than my newer pieces, but I like them still for some reason (although I guess still managed to forget about getting them properly scanned). I’ve been in Ireland for nearly a week, and without my camera cord, I need to some how blog and keep it somewhat relevant.

I was reminded of these old drawings because while I’ve been here, I noticed that my passive doodles were drifting in a celtic direction, and I was using a similar “iconographic” style that I used to drift towards.

CELTIC is Irish. (relevance)

Well, not specifically, as it is technically “a branch of the Indo-European languages that was spread widely over Europe in the pre-Christian era”

Celtic is also a branch of the Indo-European family of languages that includes Gaelic, Welsh, and Breton, still spoken in parts of Scotland, Ireland, Wales, and Brittany.

I definitely feel like I’m getting my history lesson here, (and i will not give you one now, so don’t yawn just yet), but I think that with all the backstory I’m getting (along with getting to treck through mountains and see crazy landscapes over 65 million years old), im really getting something out of this trip. I WISH my cord was here. If not to show off some cool castle pics, at least I could show the Celt-inspired drawing I’ve been working on in the rainy-er days.
