Where we met "Cream"

I spent the morning working on my oil painting of "Cream," with my painting mates via Zoom. She's the Jacob Sheep we met in May of 2019 on our trip to Ireland. "Cream" was grazing with her sheep friends and donkeys on the nature trails surrounding the Doolin Cave. 

"Pol an Ionain (or Poll-an-Ionain) is a limestone cave near Doolin in County Clare, Ireland, on the western edge of The Burren. The name is the anglicised version of the Irish name Poll an Eidhneáin, which is said to translate into "Ivy Cliff Cave".
The cave was discovered in 1952 by J. M. Dickenson and Brian Varley of Craven Pothole Club, an English caving club based in the Yorkshire Dales. Entry was arduous, requiring a long, difficult crawl.
In 1990, the land on which the cave is located was purchased by John and Helen Browne. The couple undertook an effort to develop the cave as a show cave. This provoked a reaction from the Speleological Union of Ireland who feared the 30-metre (98 ft) shaft that would have to be blasted to access the cave would damage the stalactite. They also objected to the fact that the caving trip would be lost to cavers and that the cave was a short artificial trip with only one feature. After an extended period of court proceedings, financing and development, the cave was opened to the public as a show cave in 2006, subject to the conditions of not having a visitor centre on site and restricting visitor numbers. No blasting was allowed to construct the entrance shaft. The developers instead used as system whereby a hole was drilled and an air expander placed in the hole to break the rock." Wikipedia

"Cream" is coming along and finally nearing completion after time off from painting during the early part of the pandemic. It's for Nora, next I'll paint something for Hunty.

For the Record,
This day came in sunny and cold with a brisk wind. The snow never materialized and the next days look warmer according to the forecast.

All hands wary. I'm counting down to my second Pfizer on Wednesday the 24th.
