“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.

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.
Focus your eyes on the center of this painting and you’ll see the “Irish Butterfly”.
The inspiration for this piece came from the carpet pages from the “Book of Kells”.
Angel baby sits upon her Irish throne of blueish green knotwork and of course on her lovely purple pillow to support her precious feet.
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.
A wonderful cross with Celtic knots throughout and the symbol in the center tells the story.
“The Lord is my strength and my shield; My heart trusts and I am helped.” Psalm 28:7
I just love hearts and all shapes really including the beautiful gold diamond in the middle!
