Description
This piece is inspired by my childhood walks in Jamestown, Co. Leitrim. There is a wall that runs alongside the river Shannon, just at the Weir, where a beautiful little wildflower grows. Ivy leaf toadflax is the plant, with tiny purple flowers and sprawling pink tendrils. Its beauty and ability to thrive in the smallest crack in the stone always fascinated me, and inspires me to try to bloom wherever one is planted in life.
This piece is drawn in ink, with watercolor in subtle colours. The wall section is separate from the background, giving the piece depth and highlighting the crocheted flowers that have grown out of their foothold in the wall.
