The brief for this percent for art scheme commission for St Bridgids National School Palmerstown, was to create an imaginative 2-D realistic representation of St. Brigid that would be child-friendly and would invite pupil participation in its construction.
Inspired by the pupils drawings , I portrayed a life-sized St. Brigid in a fantastical landscape where her magical cloak shimmers, sparkles and envelopes the floor before her.
I have incorporated the many legends and stories associated with St. Brigid within the mosaic.

Each pupil was asked to draw a magical flower and I have replicated a flower from each age group from 4 to 12 in glass.
