I’ve been contemplating doing a series on Celtic mythology for awhile. This is a quickly knocked out painting I did a while back representing the Morrigan. Needs a bit of work but the concept is there I think. I find ancient Celtic history fascinating. 💜 . . . . . #morrigan #oilpainting #celtic #celticmythology #ancientcelts #irish #ireland #crow #triskelion #triskele #smoke #transformation #goddess #shapeshifter #art #goddessart #celticart #history #mythology #originalartwork #art #painting https://www.instagram.com/p/CK6793PnlE5/?igshid=ex9fdx5ffec8

Within life's stream we see and experience the ebb and flow of our karma and that of others. The rich tapestry of encounters remind us of her complexity. The question arises when we are ready.....who am I what is this world which seems so real but is non permanent. We sleep and dream of other world's wishing we were flying, diving, running, being anywhere but here. And at times our melancholic consciousness is open to the idea that we are not of this world but mere visitors in a realm that is meant for us to experiment being independent. Such is the folly of the soul. When we truly want the truth to be revealed and have had enough of the highs and lows of life here then we are offered an alternative. So rise up oh weary souls taste the nectar of spiritual bliss an everlasting happiness free from doubt illusion. It is our desire that will free us from this matrix this material world. Wishing you all love and light insight and understanding on your path. Be free be in tranquillity. .@janardenartist #outsiderartist #outsiderart #shaman #shamanicarts #naturalworld #mothernature #naturephotography #cork #ireland #perceptions #hellocork #photographer #philosophy #vedic #ancientcelts #ancientgods #knowledge #thrive #mentalhealth #12steps #higherpower #recovery #bible #koran #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #buddhism #mindfulness #dharma #sanga #buddhism (at Cork)

Up in the mountains where the wild wind blows cascading droplets of rain adorn are heads, standing whispering in majestic silence a circle of stones beckons us hither. Dressed in wisdom and singing sweetly back in time I take you all To seasons passing merriment and mirth ritualistic dancing apon holy earth. Deep beneath this sacred mountain Manifesting spirits wait to see Being called when healing powers Are needed to cure and be. So dance ye spirits fill our hearts with positivity as the earth in all her glory aligned the stones for all to see. Lines that cross and are connected Weaving through this weeping land helping balance heart and seasons weather calmed weather calmed. .@janardenartist #outsiderartist #outsiderart #pagan #paganrites #paganism #westcork #wicca #wiccan #witchcraft #ireland #ancientcelts #shamanicarts #shaman #shamanism #herblore #folktales #magic #kealkill #stonecircles #sacredplaces #standingstones #cork #poetry #poems #poet #wordsmith (at Kealkil Stone Circle)

Today I spent a wonderful time with my two youngest kids and their mother at St Fagans Welsh history open air museum about 15mins drive from Cardiff city centre. It's an amazing collection of old Welsh buildings disassembled and reconstructed brick by brick. Like old shops houses working mens clubs and much more. This is a picture of a reconstructed Iron Age round house. It's definitely worth a visit for a long day of discovery and wonder. .@janardenartist #outsiderartist #outsiderart #artbrut #visionary #visionaryart #wales #stfagans #welshhistory #ancientcelts #roundhouse #cardifflife #cardiff #history #ironage #vikings #Ramastec #romans

This is a tall Ogham pillar with a stone bowl called a stup or Ballune basin beneath used for healing and rituals. On this pillar is writing in ancient ogham. Near the pillar is an early church. Oh ancient souls that once did dwell what stories ye all could tell. Of Summer solstice and winter too Of herbs and laughter healing soothe. The gathering of folk and kin To celebrate to dance and sing. .@janardenartist #outsiderartist #outsiderart #shaman #shamanicarts #stonecircles #sacredplaces #standingstones#cork #ireland #ancientcelts #templebryan #westcork #hellocork_ So amazing to have access to the land and to experience these ancient sites.
