Description
A3 (30 x 42cm/ 12 x 16.5")Acrylics on watercolour paper
Here the standing stones are again a gateway between myth and reality... in this case historical reality. The Sentinel is loosely based on Cernnunus, the Horned God, though it's my own interpretation. The Sentinel is a forest guardian and can be summoned only by one with the blood of the Tuatha Dé Danann.... whether they know it or not.

I'm a big Centaur fan, so I love this pic! I guessed from your artist comment that he's technically not a proper Centaur, but he's still Centaur-like. Awesome job!

Cernnunos = Herne The Hunter
Well he turned into that eventually.
I'm 15-20% Irish with some scottish and British in me. So My (very) distant ancestors were Celts.
But I'm 50% Puerto Rican (Spanish) which would link me back to the Romans, and they killed the Celts...
Huh... So my ancestors killed my ancestors.
Weird how that works out o_O
Anyway, Nice job. The art is amazing.
One question though. Who's the Girl?

The triple spiral or triskele does have links with Celtic mythology/ pagan practices. It's sometimes linked to cycles like life/ death/ rebirth - which some have interpreted to represent the triple goddess (mother/ crone/ maiden)
