Last year when  my hubby and I embarked on our journey back to where our ancestors came from - Ireland  & UK ,  I had a quest to follow a Medieval path to find connections to the swirls and designs that feature in my work and to stand in a place  where the illuminated manuscripts had been scribed during the  3rd - 5th centuries ...
