This makes me smile. The way you've incorporated the themes of the song and the negative space map of Ireland works really well. I have a half mix of Irish/Scottish blood on my fathers side. I recently took a road trip up the west coast of England and did a few DS speedpaints at Pembrokeshire and St Kilda, Wales, but I am sure my memories of the rugged Eastern coast of Ireland that I remember as a kid played a subconscious part in their rendering. :)
