    One side of the ornament. The head of a woman with long, plaited and bound brown hair, three drawn lines from her lip to her neck, and wearing a garland on her head.

    A woman wearing warm tan-coloured clothing including a hood and heavy boots, and a golden necklace of runes sits cross-legged on the ground. A staff and notebook sit near her feet. She appears to draw a tendril of fire across one hand and into a horn held in her other hand. A tendril of fire, rising from the top of her hood, drifts off into the distance and blends with the clouds. A mass of cats of all colours and in many poses surrounds the face of a red-haired woman with cat-slit eyes and ears, and a Eye of Horus symbol on her forehead. A white cat sits on her head. Colours are oranges, reds, black and white.

    A roughly oval shaped design depicting winter above and below ground, on a white background. At the bottom, a bear, hare, and wolf sleep in separate chambers underground. To the right, tree roots part to reveal a female figure holding a flame in her hand. A similar figure, but pale and sleepy, lies to the left. Above this group stand three bare trees. There's a spiral beneath the centre tree, above the sleeping bear. Deer and a stag stand in the group of trees. The head of an owl protrudes from the centre .

    A woman wearing warm tan-coloured clothing including a hood and heavy boots, and a golden necklace of runes sits cross-legged on the ground in front of a small fire with a teapot to one side. A staff and notebook sit near her feet. She appears to draw a tendril of fire across one hand and into a horn held in her other hand. She sits next to a stream which meanders off to one side. Horses graze nearby ... A male figure with long brown hair and beard, both cascading down his body, stands sideways wearing a pale green flowing robe. The side of his head is shaved, and tattooed with a line of characters from the Ogham alphabet. His bound hair contains fungi, a group of feathers, and a mouse. He looks down towards butterflies sitting on his hand. Runes dangle from his arm. A mouse sits in the crook at his elbow. A white stoat appears to form from his shoulder and run down his arm, a badger from his back ...

    The head and shoulders of a woman (on the left) and a man (right) stand together, facing the viewer. The woman has long, plaited and bound brown hair, three drawn lines from her lip to her neck, and wears a garland on her head. To her side sits a delicate staff with runes hanging from it. The man has just one eye, with a long scar going vertically through where it should be, and is wearing a fur coat. A shaman's rattle, with the appearance of being made from a raven's head and feathers, and with runes hangi

    A large grey and white heron stands in water near the bank of a river. An otter peers in from the left. A mass of cats of all colours and in many poses surrounds the face of a red-haired woman with cat-slit eyes and ears, and a Eye of Horus symbol on her forehead. A white cat sits on her head. She holds a gold-coloured sistrum (a type of rattle) in one hand. Colours are oranges, reds, black and white.

    A roughly oval design, topped with a tree in full leaf, surrounded by clouds, but clearing to blue in the centre, and swifts wheeling all around. Beneath, the top half of the oval is a flower-filled meadow. A stag and badger stand either side, and a hare, blackbird, mouse, and other creatures are nestled within. The head and shoulders of a young woman lying on her back rise from the ground. Beneath her, the bottom half of the oval is a mass of twisting roots, branches, leaves, fungi and toadstools ...

    A large grey and white heron stands on one leg in water near the bank of a river. To the left, a grassy bank reveals otters, a slug and blue damselfly. Another damselfly hovers nearby. Runes (Berkana and Algiz) dangle from the heron's beak. The river extends behind the scene, with grassland and trees beyond. In the background, a heron lands on a tilted, broken tree trunk, and another flies silhouetted against the sky. An unborn human baby lies curled up within the sun. A male figure with long brown hair and beard, both cascading down his body, stands sideways wearing a pale green flowing robe. The side of his head is shaved, and tattooed with a line of characters from the Ogham alphabet. His bound hair contains fungi, a group of feathers, and a mouse. He looks down towards butterflies sitting on his hand. Runes dangle from his arm. A mouse sits in the crook at his elbow. A white stoat appears to form from his shoulder and run down his arm, a badger from his back ...

  • Beautiful new designs from Naomi Cornock 🙂

    Very pleased to announce we have a new set of cards (with gifts arriving soon!) featuring Naomi Cornock’s incredible art. These are more pagan-oriented than her current set, but if that’s not your thing, there’s a fabulous cat-themed card (on the theme of Bastet, the Egyptian goddess of cats), and a beautiful ‘Rebirth’ card representing the cycles of nature, including Spring (perfect timing!). Order now!

  • Nothing heralds Spring like a bunch of Daffodils !

    Nothing heralds the start of Spring like a daffodil. They are such cheerful blooms, I can’t resist picking up a bunch when I do my shopping, they really brighten up the studio. They are ‘Springing’ up all over the place, in the garden, on the verges and the hedgerows. 

    So I thought today I would show you how I painted this little bunch….but let me warn you now, they may look bright, cheerful and welcoming, but they are not easy to paint.

    First I chose the ones I wanted to immortalise in paint and sketched them onto watercolour paper.

    Then I sprayed the paper, and dropped ( rather than splattered) yellow paint around where the blooms would be painted.

    Dab off carefully any bits with kitchen roll if you fear you have gone too far, and then leave to dry completely, it gets much lighter when it dries, This I think is the kind of effect that makes watercolour special.

    See how when it dries it sort of settles into the paper.

    Now to start on the flowers themselves . I like to leave some whit of the paper to be the highlights. I am using a mix of yellows, cadmium yellow, lemon yellow and Indian yellow.

    I also darken it with a touch of cadmium orange and or burnt sienna.

    I add some darker tones while the paint is still wet.

    Here can you see?

    Now as the flower starts to emerge, and the paint starts to dry, my tones can get darker.

    I also carry some of the yellow into the stem. I paint the papery collar around the stem, with yellow ochre and burnt umber.

    #

    I also use sap green on the stem, I darken the green with cobalt blue to give the stem a light and dark tone.

    Then while things are drying I can start on another flower.

    Working my way carefully across the flowers, assessing when I want to leave things to dry and when I want to drop more colour in.

    On a painting like this you can work on more than one area at once.

    The darks need to be dark enough to add definition and depth to the flowers. Look at daffodils and you can see how dark some parts can be.

     

    Just the leaves and stems to go, and the all important stepping back to see if I’ve missed anything.

    And I think I am done, a bunch of daffodils that will last forever x

  • It’s not long until Mother’s Day! Treat someone special to a card or gift 🙂

    If you’re in the UK, Mother’s Day is just a week and a half away! We have loads of gorgeous cards and gifts if you like to treat someone on this special day, including this beautiful new fox-themed card by Sam Cannon. 

    You can see all of our Mother’s Day cards here, and all our gifts, here.

    Remember that we can send a card or gift direct with a personal message inside.

    A red fox sits upright looking directly at the viewer. A much smaller fox sits leaning against the first, head tilted upwards, eyes closed. They're surrounded by stems of white stitchwort and cow parsley flowers set against a teal background.
