Hi everyone, remember today is the very last day to get my work at their current prices. If you are interested in a piece let me know as I will be raising all my prices tomorrow. Payment plans are available. 👍 This painting comes from my collection "The Hollow" an exhibition based on the folklore, legends and ghost stories of Cavan. "The Strawboys Stop The Wedding" Acrylic and pastel on paper 58 x 77cm, 22.8 x 30.3″ Professionally framed in a black wooden box frame, size: 62.5 x 81 x 5cm, 26.6 x 31.8 x 2″ Price: €650 This account of the Straw Boys comes from Redhill’s; the Straw Boys would appear at the bride’s house before the wedding to hold it up. The Straw Boys were considered a sign of good luck and for them not to appear at a wedding meant your family was being snubbed. The Straw Men concealed their identities behind stylised hats made of straw and collected their reward in the local pub after their work was done where money had been left with the barman to quench their thirst. #strawboys #strawmen #wickermen #irishtraditions #irishfolklore #folkart #artwithstories https://www.instagram.com/p/B9JqNpznsvp/?igshid=2l6l17y8c8wz
