St Patricks Day
An intense but enjoyable day spending St Patricks Day with the Irish Guards
I enjoy military parade paintings, it's quite a unique subject that so many people repeat their movements with such discipline allowing me to develop a more complex oil painting from life

Happy St Patrick’s Day! Here’s a sneak peak of the Irish Guards rehearsing for their annual parade. Sláinte to all those celebrating today! 🇮🇪

Preparations Complete!

St Patrick’s Day is now only two days away and everyone from the Irish Guards is getting excited for the celebrations on Sunday.
