Understanding This picture is based on an image from the Book of Kells. Dogs symbolise friendship. This dog sits in quiet understanding. No need for schedules or dramas. Happy to just be. Growing up within the local heritage of the Boyne Valley, Colette’s work is inspired by ancient Celtic art.  Colette uses nib and ink to create intricate colourful drawings creating a contemporary interpretation of the iconic imagery of the Book of Kells. Please note that colour may differ slightly from photos due to different monitor settings.
