An original artwork of a heron with wildflowers, created using acrylic paints on A3 board.
In Celtic lore, herons are considered a sacred bird, sometimes seen as a physical manifestation of the goddess Rhiannon, and representing transformation, intuition, and the guardianship of secrets.

An original artwork of a greenfinch perched on a branch. Created using watercolour paints on 5x7" watercolour paper.
Rhiannon, a Welsh goddess of fertility, birds, and the Otherworld, is associated with singing birds. Her birds are often described as enchanted, capable of waking the dead or lulling the living to sleep.

An original artwork of a badger from the side profile. Created using watercolour paints on A4 watercolour paper.
In Welsh mythology and folklore, badgers (mochyn daear or broch) are viewed as ancient, tenacious guardians of the earth and nocturnal spirits of the forest. They symbolize wisdom and resilience, and are often seen as guides to the underworld.

An original watercolour artwork of an owl.
Blodeuwedd, in Welsh mythology, represents a complex symbol of freedom, being transformed from a forced, artificial wife into an untamed owl. She defies patriarchal, pre-ordained roles, and with her punishment she reclaimed her liberation, wisdom, and autonomy.

Gulls sound unhappy because on land they call for the sea while at sea they call for the land, and they always call for their lost families.
