Description

BENEATH THE SKY OF STARS. 1989.

‘Beneath the Sky of Stars’ was a piece I originally designed as a black and white line drawing printed in raised print and hand-coloured for inclusion in the special hardcover limited edition signed and numbered version of ‘The Book of Conquests’ in 1980.

Later in 1989, I was commissioned by an enthusiastic US buyer who loved the original image and wanted a full-scale painting of the image.

This is the full colour painted version and represents the love of Nuada of the Silver Arm for his consort, the Mórrigan.

It is always a wonderful thing when someone loves your work enough to commission an original piece and this one was a joy from start to finish.
