Artist's Description
I'm not sure if I took an unusual approach or not, but I had visited the National Museum Of Ireland - Archaeology in Dublin before I sat foot at the ancient site known as the Hill of Tara or the nearby Boyne Valley. And I think, particularly for the Hill of Tara, seeing the results of the excavations there first was incredibly beneficial.

About Mark Tisdale
Life is full of happy surprises. After just over a decade working in the 9 to 5 cube world, I threw caution to the wind to follow my dreams of being a full time visual artist.
