Today I had the pleasure of once again working on a fine Scotsman with big ambitions for ethnic art. We started last year with the thistle and shoulder-cap, later added the William Wallace band, and then today brought the piece down to the elbow with what we have named the "Bloodline Band," an adaptation of the "Triple Loop Band" from the 7th c. Book of Durrow. It was his idea to run a red ribbon through the band, representing the blood line that connects him to his Scottish ancestors.
