I've travelled to Ireland twice in my life. Once right after I graduated from college, and the second time was my honeymoon. I love traditional Irish music--it's so lively and...well just full of life. It's also best heard live. There's just nothing like hearing an impromptu gathering of musicians in a little pub up on a side street in Dingle town--especially after a full day of hiking the Irish coast.
This sketch was an attempt several years ago to capture something of that feeling--from memory. It's the precursor to a painting that I did on wood and was supposed to be one part of a triangular diptych...but I never got around to the second part.
I'll show the painting later...
