When first walking around Limerick City I found myself looking up, taking photos of church towers, roof-tops windows, church ceilings and stainglass windows.
.

  

I made a painting in soft pastels of the top of  the  church tower

And of vaults inside of other church in ink and watery acrylics

When I realized I was looking mostly up, I started looking down and took photos of what appealed to me while I was looking down.

 

The swirling water inrested me, and I tried to figure out how this effect.

One of the ways in which I tried to achieve this was by altering a photo

This reminded me somehow of marbling.

I had seen marbling demonstrated in Rome last year, but never tried it out yet.

I set about getting a tray, wall-paper paste and a pipette to drop in diluted acrylic paint as well as a toothpick to drag the paint through the paste.
