Wild - Original on Canvas

€250.00

In Irish folklore, the hare or Giorria (guh-ree-ah) in Irish is often associated with shapeshifting and is believed to have the ability to transform into human form. This ability links the hare to the Otherworld and the fairy realm, often seen as a messenger or guide between worlds. The hare is also connected to the moon and Celtic goddesses, particularly those of fertility and the harvest. For centuries, it appeared on our old Irish three pence coin. This painting honors that wild spirit, the way it links us to nature, to myth, and to our deepest selves.

“You were never meant to fit in. You were born to run free, to move to the beat of your drum. Stay true to who you are,  your magic lies in your wildness.”
