Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Hey you guys!

I have a couple things to share in this post!

It’s to say Happy St. Patrick’s day, before St. Patrick’s Day!

I’m pretty sure that I shared this before but I have a little bit of Irish in me.

My 6th great grandfather John McGriff came from Ireland.

They came to America due to famine. I can’t imagine having to leave all of your things and start new like that. I think that is so inspirational!

I read recently that in Ireland, McGriff is believed have originated from the Gaelic name

Mac Griofa which means “Son of the Griffin.”

Moving on though, the first thing that I have to share is something I made years ago. It shows the making of a 2.5” X 3.5” work.

The next thing is a photo I took of Freda (my ceramic yoga dog) in her St. Patrick’s day hat!

I painted Freda in pink, purple and blue to represent bi-sexuality and the white is to stand up for my trans friends!

To let them know that they are not alone.

The name is a combination of Frida Kahlo July 6, 1907 - July 13, 1954

and Freddie Mercury Sep 5, 1946 - Nov 24, 1991 .

In other words, she is both female and male.

They were both bi-sexual, which I think is very appropriate!

On that note, I hope that you all have a wonderful St. Patrick’s Day tomorrow!!!

Until next time.

Namaste,

Angela
