Choose a noun. It may be from the list or another poetic Irish noun of your choice. Illustrate it in any medium, or mixed media (Aon mheán nó meáin mheasctha). For example (mar shampla) painting, sketch, quilt, cross-stitch, embroidery, mosaic, collage, cake icing, sculpture, model etc (agus araile). You may choose the meaning, or the literal meaning, or even both. For example for Bóin Dé (ladybird) you may create a ladybird or God’s Little Cow, or both. The Irish word must be included in the illustration. (Caithfidh an focal a bheith mar chuid den léaráid)
