A west of Ireland #painting "Burren Walls" came out of several trips to the karst landscape of County Clare where I was entranced by its fields of stone. And I do like a wall. #SpéirGhorm #ArtYear

Landscape format in acrylics on canvas. On flat land of limestone karst rendered in colours of lilac, pale blue and grey, with black crevices and white highlights, is a stone wall running horizontally across the full width of the painting, with the distinctive burren stones, narrow and slanted, with crevices running lengthways. In the distance is another wall running across the full width of the painting, and distant dark lines indicate more further back before the horizon of a muted blue low tree-line with a couple of buildings dotted in among them. Further back on the left are paler blue trees or hills in the distance. There is a small tree with a leaning straight thin almost white trunk midway back on the right, with a dense small clump of dark olive foliage leaning to the right and a green bush around its base. Some flecks of light olive flora litter the fields of stone. Sky is white fluffy clouds on pale blue. Signed bottom right in dark blue, Liam Daly

Way back when, I canvassed Twitter for similar tales. My favourite, and one I still think about eight years later, was this.

Tweet from @michaelkellyk: My brother @feenish told an american visitor that the 4 provinces of Ireland were Ulster, Munster, Funster, and Gunster.

Lookit. Deep down every Irish person wants to spin some yank a yarn that gets cited as fact in some factual text. We told an Irish American girl that when the Muppets was released in Ireland, Kermit the Frog was called Dermot the Frog because Cromwell’s son was a Kermit.

A west of Ireland #painting, "Connemara Waters" came out of an idyllic day cycling in south Connemara when I stopped for a while to look across the bogs to the mountains of north Connemara. And to watch a family of swans because how can you not? #SpéirGhorm #ArtYear #MountainMonday

Landscape format in acrylics on canvas. The bottom two-thirds of the scene below the horizon is a bog of grasses and vegetation of greens, oranges, yellows and blues. The bog is laced with horizontal strips of very pale lilac water, some with grey and dark rocks protruding from them. Along the horizon is a low distant ridge of a green hill punctuated with dots of pale houses and dark green trees, that starts to rise up towards the right edge. Behind it is a long low purple hill on the left half, and further behind across the whole painting are 4 large pyramidal mountains of different blues, stacked behind each other getting paler as they recede in the distance. The sky is a very pale smoky teal. The water pool along the full width of the bottom edge is an even paler lilac, almost white, but with lots of short little horizontal rippling strokes of pale aqua blue and purple. Signed bottom right in dark blue, right where the pale water changes to purple, Liam Daly.

So, Banksy bought a used yacht, repaired it and retrofitted it to serve as a rescue boat to save migrants in the central Mediterranean. The whole project cost the artist $860,000. Since 2020, the boat has saved more than 3,800 people. londondaily.com/banksy-funds...

Astrophotographer Adam (AJ) Smadi caught this image a few hours ago from Washington state. A thin crescent Moon, sunlight illuminating the rugged lunar surface. And 2,400 times farther away—and on the other side of the Sun—mighty Jupiter, and its moons Io (left) and Ganymede (right).

A crescent Moon seen during the day, arcing from upper left to lower right of the frame. At lower centre is the full disk of Jupiter; the small dots to its upper left and lower right and Io and Ganymede, respectively.
