More of my favourite
random tangles

TheCurraneTangle

1991 | Isle of Man | 6" x 6"
Indian Ink & Watercolour

Randomness Sweet Randomness!

This TangleKnot seemed to draw itself. I made 10 others - only this one really worked. And now I have a new starting point.

I have so many favourites -
ofc this is another.

TheTowerKnot

2007 | South Boston | 6" x 13"
Indian Ink & Watercolour

I was trying another approach - but I can see I'm going to have to work at it more.

What excites me about this piece are the possibilities of the negative space. I love the way the blue falls through the middle of the piece.

It was an excellent exercise
in patience.

TheRoseBushKnot

2025 | Savin Hill | 8" x 12"
Indian Ink & Watercolour

Here’s a knot where
Celt meets flowers!

Only a few steps away
from the one above.

When I ink lined this one, I had no idea how to colour it. Now its a rose garden growing out of the fertile soil in a clear blue sky.

TheObsessionKnot

1995 | Dublin | 6" x 8"
Indian Ink & Watercolour

It’s funny how things just come up. In among making strict symmetrical knots - I came up with this out of the blue.

It’s a very early poignant success. I didn't try to develop it as I was focused on more traditional knots at the time. It was the first of many more organic works.

It has the word Obsession woven through it. I knew it back then. I was a Celtic Knot addict. Beyond addicted even.

TheMexicanKnot

2020 | South Boston | 8" x 10"
Indian Ink & Watercolour

Simple ideas bring me a deep joy.
Another out-of-the-blue sketch idea that turned into a butterfly and flew away.

This piece is the start of a whole new direction in thinking. Watch this space.

TheNollaigKnot

2011 | Dorchester | 5" x 6"
Pencil

An attempt to cover the entire Gaelic Language Christmas
Card market. Ha!

"Nollaig Shona"
Gaelic for
Merry Christmas!
