Sheela in progress
Went to my favorite shop to get whites and found myself a set of foxes bones. Always liked to make studies of bones.
One of my Shelas from the Gods series : The fear Shela na gig.
You pass threw her portal by letting go of your fears. Than she will take all your pain and sorrow, everything shitty, the whole lot. No bother. If you concentrate on the eyes you will see your fear concentrate on the moon, you will let go.

Clairseach (wire strung harp)
Dun Aengus is a slow air inspired by my visit to the Arann Island Inis More.
Tune The Theatre is an other one of my compositions, which got its name when I played it as the first tune ever played in the new theatre on the official opening of Cultúrlann Sweeney, Kilkee.
work in progress
Workspace with several paintings. I always need to have at least 10 paintings i am working on.
Sketches of seals transforming into Selchie, part of a painting of the burning ship.
The Merman is 20 years old and just recently i decided he wasn’t finished. So he looks like this now. I need to only finish little details here and there and he can go and breath his own air.
4 stages of the Phoenix. Physical, emotional, mental and spiritual. I find the 4 elements in it as well with earth, water, fire and air.
A quite funny one between my so serious work. I called it “Freediving” and everybody liking the water can surely relate to it. I think the pattern of people develops conveniently.
The first set up of a figure in stone.I like particulary the 3 dimensional look of the leg .
Growing wings. the first set up

Art Exhibition: “No Style”
Astrid Adler is showing the Art-Exhibition: ”NO STYLE” during the Doonbeg Jazz Festival
The artist put this exhibition together to show the diversity of her work. Exploring abstract ancient symbols with charcoal and chalk on big tinted papers creating the look of stone, than, catapulting Celtic Art full colour into the 21st Century, where its construction takes completely different rules; you find Materialism still confused with Surrealism, Andre Breton still discussing with Salvador Dali if he is one, over Illustrations of local fairy tails to some study in pastels of the Stanley range, coming home to prints in Outsider Art “Scattery Island” and old favorite “The Weddingcross”.
Openings hours are: Friday 8-10pm, Saturday 2-5pm and Monday 2-3pm. Artist will be present. Venue: Strandcamping Doonbeg.
