A bird’s eye view of the River Boyne, named after the goddess Boann in Irish mythology. 💧 From Manchán Magan’s ‘Ireland in Iceland: Gaelic Remnants in a Nordic Land’ which I illustrated 120+ pieces for using a brush, pen, ink and watercolors. It is published by Mayo Books and available in shops in Ireland, also available to order internationally on Manchán’s and Mayo Books website. It is a windswept adventure by land and sea preserving myth, folklore and history. 🌀

The March of the Tuatha Dé Danann, otherwise known as the tribe of the goddess Danu - an otherworldly pantheon of gods and goddesses in Irish myth and folklore. They are part of ‘na síoga’, the fairy folk who inhabit nature. 🍃 An illustration with ink and watercolor from ‘Ireland in Iceland: Gaelic Remnants in a Nordic Land’ written by the late Manchán Magan.☀️ The book is available in shops in Ireland and online to order! Seek it out! 🌞 Manchán’s work and words are a lighthouse in these cruel times, rising beyond nationalism and instead shining a light on the migratory roots of our interconnecting cultures, how interwoven we all are through language and culture. Together on the big earth village, with the sea as our belt. 🌊
