Kathryn Finter is a Canadian artist whose fifteenth-century materials and techniques of panel painting and manuscript illumination have inspired me. I learned a great deal while researching her illuminated letter art. I then decided to make my stepdad a Celtic Irish Quinn family name design.

The Saint and the Shamrock

It’s almost St. Patrick’s Day! Just about three weeks to go! Grocery stores, drug stores, and big box stores are awash with every imaginable shade of green now that Valentine’s Day pink has faded away, and products ranging from greeting cards to green ravioli vie for shoppers’ attention.As I mentioned in my post of February 28, 2024, Rising Roads and Other Rants and Ramblings, this is also the…

Today’s Irish word of the day is GRÁ (graw). There is an online Irish dictionary where you can browse for translations and definitions at focloir. ie

Your interest will help keep Irish alive as it is the oldest living Celtic language that originated in Ireland over a thousand years ago!

Shallow river, shinning within her

Tala Bucad and Roisin Ayame :D tragic Ocs beloved of mine !! In a world where people draw energy from the ground to produce fire that could heal all wounds, to die in water is the worst fate. Worst still, to die in your lovers arms without your wedding band.

I had to draw more dogs & I was in a GE mood today. When I said that Joe was an Irish Wolfhound of a man, this is what I meant.

#joe's an irish wolfhound & pip's an english bulldog. not sure what breed pip's sister would be tho #I just really want joe to protect pip & this is what my brain came up with #that firepoker has so much symbolism between pip & joe I love it so much #there needs to be more art of pip in his little blacksmith's apron #he's literally so adorable #pip pirrip #joe gargery #south park #great expectations

i will be honest sometimes ill be talking w europeans abt gaza and its like okay you’re talking about a concept and i am talking about my uncle

#in many different ways. mostly thinking abt this one christian german guy my friend knew who was really intensely zionist and it was like #you are making up this idea of jewish people in your head like this is a symbol to you. idk that youre engaging w the realities dude #but same w like the irish ppl i overheard the other day being like ‘ah well you know palestinians are so like us as well’#this seems like maybe youre just treating palestine as a symbol for ireland but like. it’s its own place #the attitude of like. making world war one ass alliances and being like well im on this side for symbolic reasons irrespective of the #people actually involved really annoys me #like idt palestinians right to not be genocided is dependent on how irish they seem #and idt supporting the israeli state meaningfully changes the fact that you dont talk to jewish people in your actual life #both attitudes end up centering ur european feelings #idk this is longwinded but the thought has been stuck in my head #be quiet b

AFFIRMATION: i am not going to watch the whole of blue eye samurai just so i can have more material to complain loudly at the fact that her bastardly father (symbol of european colonialism) is. IRISH???

#like yes obviously many irish people did in fact use their whiteness to ally themselves with empire #but as a nation? as a class of people? why use him as your symbol?? like categorically the one kind of white guy #who is not very much a symbol of white colonialism! americans baffle me!#i keep seeing people say ‘it’s about colonialism’ bro japan was not. colonised by europe #japan was famously a country that was not conquered by europe and in fact went on itself to become a colonial power!#until it was defeated by. AMERICA #in wwii! like OK maybe people are just being stupid and it’s not ‘about colonialism’ and is instead about. white supremacy and eurocentrism #but as i said. I WILL BOT WATCH IT TO FIND OUT

- Kingshaven Logo: REBIRTH -

"Behold! The Mark of the King; The Crowned Fish of Wings."

I've been teasing this for a while now and I believe it is time I explain in full detail what this symbol is. This is the Kingshaven Symbol and it's meant to be a symbol for Kingshaven Academy. The School my characters; Jamie, Sadie, and Hector hail from.

Over time, I just decided to leave it up in the air and just have it as a symbol for the universe in general as the intention is still not clear. In terms of its color, design, and choice of clothing. I've decided to put the uniform on-hold and settle with a much simpler look.

A Sublimation color shoulder shirt in either Green or Blue with embroidery of the symbol at the center of the chest area. The Green/Blue symbolizes the national animal; The Kingfisher Also, because I personally like both of these colors.

For a real-life example, here are both of the mentioned shirts with the said symbol.

- Mark of the King -

The actual life inspiration of the symbol comes from the symbol known within the Christian communities as [The Ichthys] A symbol representing the "sign of the fish" or the "Jesus fish" famously taken from the miracle at < The Feeding of The Five Thousand > and the call of Jesus to his disciples "I will make you fishers of men". (Mark 1: 16-18)

Although drawn horizontally, this fictional version is drawn vertically with the added closed loop of the fish's wings taken from [The Trinity Knot - Triquetra] For an added measure, I decided to keep to the earthly land and sea theme with a wide [Trident] design which is really just my way of honoring the roots of how I got this world started. < Percy Jackson >

Please note, the Red is NOT official.

As for its color, the orange represents The Heart of the Haven; The Burning Core. The color blue honors The Kingfisher's signature color and the white really is just an afterthought. This may feel like another sudden addition but, this is not the first time I've drawn this symbol. [Kingshaven Symbol Ver 1] Consider this as Version 2

That being said, although the symbol featured some very heavy mythological and religious symbols. It's really nothing serious because it's all just fiction for this fictional world.

Thanks for reading
