Burren Illuminated

 

This month’s piece from the Illuminated Ireland series features a photo of a dolmen (Neolithic tomb) in The Burren.

Located in County Claire, the area’s name comes from the Irish word “Boirinn” which means rocky district.  Despite its name and appearance, 70% of Ireland’s flower species can be found here. 

This is the original photo…


The letter “B” drawing…


And the collage.


Another photo of the final version.


Here are some previously posted embroideries…
