Description

Gort
16 x 20 inch Oil / Acrylic on canvas

Stretcher depth: 1.5 inches

From the Language of the Trees collection, where inspiration was taken from the connection between Celtic Oghams, their totem trees and folklore. Gort, although not a tree as such was represented by Ivy. Linked to the veiled moon and the Goddess Arianrhod. Its totem is the butterfly as Ivy was believed to hide the entrance to the faerie world. A mystical camping trip helped bring the imagery together.

*All Art of Melush paintings are not framed but are stretched and ready to hang. The painted image extends around the sides of the stretcher.
