ROCKCARVING EPISODE - AUDIO ONLY

In this episode I was thrilled to be able to interview stone carver, David McGovern of Monikie Rock Art. David is an exceptionally talented artist who is known for using Pictish motifs, key patterns and designs in his work, sometimes for commissioned copy pieces and sometimes for entirely new unique pieces. David had lots of interesting insights into Pictish stone carvers and it was a joy to visit him.


I also headed to Meffan Museum in Forfar to speak to two of their experts, Shaun Wilson and Susan Curran, about the Pictish stones in Angus and some of the stories behind them.


Shaun was kind enough to let me record him telling two stories about two different Pictish stones, so if you check out the video version of this episode on YouTube, you will be able to experience those.
