Hello to all festival go-ers. Welcome to Kit Lang Art!
Today I am showing you a piece I finished earlier this year, called "Hiraeth".

"Hiraeth" (c) 2013 Kit Lang - 39" x 29"
Two weeks before Christmas in 2012, I came across the word "hiraeth" on Facebook. I'm an avid reader, and work with words for a living, but had never seen this word before. A quick Google search informed me that it was a Welsh word with no real English equivalent - but it's closed meaning was something like "homesickness tinged with grief or sadness over the lost".
