ceide fields

This painting was inspired by a visit to the Céide Fields
in County Mayo, the 5,000 year old remnants of the
stone walls, houses, and megalithic tombs of a farming
community preserved beneath an eight foot blanket of
peat.  These ancient fields are organized in the same
way that can be seen across Ireland to this day. 
    In this painting the fields are arrayed in a symbolic
Celtic pattern, and watched over by Anu, the greatest
of all Irish goddesses, the deity of cattle, health,
fertility, prosperity, and comfort.
