“Cordelia”
Cordelia, in Irish, means jewel of the sea. I thought this looked like a beautiful ornate jewel that I would love to find at the bottom of the sea. The colors are varying greens and blues and turquoise with 23kt gold diamonds on the top and bottom.

This is done with a purple background. The “C” is done with a slight reminder of the Celtic knotwork.
This painting gives the viewer the feeling of looking upward. As if looking upward through a lush forest or jungle and then seeing the light from above.
Wow, it got caught out in the rain and still it appears lovely with the beautiful shades of purple sprouting out and adoring the sky.
The inspiration for this piece came from the carpet pages from the “Book of Kells”.
I had just finished reading one of those great books about Henry VIII England so I was really in the mood for knots and crowns.
