Swallows are back!

Today is a pretty special day. A bit earlier than previous years, the swallows are back. They came the day my daughter was born and ever since we celebrate when they come back… We do celebrate her birthday too, don’t worry. But yes, the Irish summer is starting. And as if the weather knew the swallows were coming today we’ve had rain, hailstone and snow today too.

I made this woodcut back in 2015 for the Interpreting Yeats exhibition with Blackstack Studio. Read more about it here.
