My linocut print shows an Irish earthen mound or sΓ­dhe at night covered in dark green grass under a cyan blue starry sky with moon. The base of the mound is marked with grey rocks and there is a shaft-like entrance with post and lintel rocks that is black inside. Below this is a black region underground and then there’s a gathering of 6 human-like Aos SΓ­, 3 men and 3 women in long robes printed in a gradient of green and gold ink who appear to glow and have pointed ears. They wear flowers and branches and antlers in their hair. 11” x 14”

Some Irish folklore this St Patrick’s Day: the SΓ­dhe, the Aos sΓ­, the fair folk, the good people, or the people of the shee from Irish folklore, who live underground.

Orphaned kids in Gaza compete at making backflips amidst the rubble. Traumatized teenagers in Ukraine play football in bombed out stadiums. Soldiers play to stay sane. Playfulness is an act of self-expression, of togetherness, of humanity; acts that can be afforded even in the darkest of time.

Trump announces double tariffs on Canadian steel and aluminum President Trump said it plans to put a 50% tariff on steel and aluminum from Canada in an escalation of recent trade tensions between the countries.

This makes no sense: A U.S. tariff on steel and aluminum means that U.S. companies will pay more to import those products. That can lead to higher prices for American businesses and consumers. #uspoli www.npr.org/2025/03/11/n...
