Description This is Clìodhna, the Irish goddess of Beauty and love. She was said to have three magical birds with the ability to bring people in a healing sleep. She felt in love with the mortal Ciabhan and the sea god Manannan mac Lir, did not like that at all. So one day, when she was sleeping on the beach, he send a wave which brought her back to the faerierealm.

I made this as an entry for the Cliodhna contest of

Piment marker and water-colours.

That is so peaceful and reminds me that I should visit the Dutch sea side more often.

Nog nooit geweest eigenlijk! Als ik ga, ga ik naar een plek wat makkelijk met het ov te bereiken is.

Ah, het OV. Soms vergeet ik het in- en uitchecken als ik tee moe ben...

Ik ben het ook wel eens vergeten. Zo zuur. Het scheelt dat ik op de meeste stations wel heel duidelijk die paaltjes tegenkom.
