Hello you beautiful shining souls! Boy, was this out of date-again!

 I'm now 31, a Priestess, very in love, and mother of the beautiful very nearly 4 year old little girl called Willow. My muse is the full moon, and my style varies depending on the medium and mood I find myself in. My heart lies in Glastonbury, or in the highlands of Scotland, so its a good job its quite flexible, as it's a long way to stretch! At last I've found a home that feels like home- a tiny village in East Sussex that's so much like the shire it's untrue!

I am the creator of the tarot of the Sidhe, a channeled work which should be avalable soon- keep checking my website...

I was an actress by profession, but thats had to be put on hold for a while until little miss is big enough to look after herself! So, I'm making a go of it as an artist.

I adore Shakespeare, and am partial to a bit of Neil Gaiman, (not telling which bit ;)), and Terry Pratchett.

I love lots of different kinds of music; Queen, Kate Bush, David Bowie, Capercaillie, Wagner and have recently really got into Peter Gabriel.(Look out for some art inspired by his work soon!) My favourite artist is probably Van Gogh, though I also really love the impressionists and the pre-Raphaelites- and many artists on this site! I have found elfwood to be an enormous source of inspiration and friendship. These are some of my favorite artists and friends, that I feel priviledged to have encountered in my wanderings...Oh, how I've missed you all!

Jay W.B. Hildybrant, of the flowing locks and mind boggling ink work- he's lovely, extremely talented, and everyone seems to fancy him!;)

Amy Rebecca Letts, my Froudian friend of the lovely watercolours and great skill with oil pastels!

Rebecca Carr, who creates uniquely dramatic images, and has a great take on the Morrigan- weirdly the oriental influences in her art work brilliantly with the celtic theme!(And she likes her blood in large quantities...)

April L. Martinez, talented, warm and friendly, and showed me how to do links! (It'd better work, now!):)

Kay Bradakur, who is a fabulous writer, a grand artist, and generally cool!

Meike de Nooy who does some incredible work which I just realised I need to go have another look at, and I'm tired, so the countless other wonders out there will just have to wait until next time!

Date Name Comment   9 Jul 2005 Jay W.B. Hildybrant Loading... Hey girl, I'm back on line these days and I'm hoping you'll be soon too. Much blessings, and happy summer days to you. Oh and your "Yule Approaches" touches me to no end, just thought I should share. 12 Oct 2005 Kayla Loading... I envy you because you are a priestess. I am Wiccan, but my Christian/Catholic family would never approve so I am forced to practice in secret. I'm only 15 and therefore still controlled by my parents but this is something I have had my mind set on for two years now and they aren't going to change it. Can you give me any advice as to how I should go about telling them? Anyway, I LOVE your work. It is so colorful and pleasing to the eye. I hope you continue to put your work on Elfwood! 8 Nov 2005 Rebecca Carr Loading... I love Van Gogh too, lots!! Starry Night was my first artistic encounter, you might say - you know when you look at a painting, and you make that little gasp - wow. Anyhoo, nice to see you back, beautiful! 10 Dec 2005 Coronach Loading... I was wondering... are you a... (well, it might not be the right word, but whatever) initiated priestess of some sort? And do you consider yourself a Wiccan, or are you more of a Mists of Avalon-oriented priestess, if you know what I mean? Not meaning to value any of them higher than the other, I just get curious whenever I see someone doing paintings of the Goddess and stuff related to Her. I mean, they do have a lot in common, but they're also very unlike each other, don't you think? Another thing that's kinda funny, is that you're an actress... I'm studying acting right now and hope that I might be an actress someday, but I don't think I'll ever be good enough to make a living of it (not to mention that I have too many ideas; I want to do everything!) Oh, and what wouldn't I give to get to visit Glastonbury sometime, hopefully sooner than later. Anyways, to get to the point: I love all your art I've seen so far, keep up the good work and keep on updating; I'll sure be back here sometime soon! 25 Dec 2005 Jayde Hilliard Loading... I love your work! I would love for you to join me at www.faeforum.com/forum and share it with my friends. We are a fantasy artist group, filled with sweet people! =^_^= I saw your Merlin piece on the front page and it compelled me to view the rest of your work, and I am not disappointed in the least bit! 2 Jan 2006 Stephanie S. K. Marbach Loading... You have a very beautiful and interesting gallery! I specially love your coloured pictures - the colours match sooo well with eatch other and are very harmonic... Great job, keep it up! 29 Apr 2006 Jay W.B. Hildybrant Loading... Hello beautiful girl, your tarot is incredible. You shine, you inspire, you express the magic of Faerie, and all of the Fey love you for it. 11 Jul 2006 Meike de Nooy Loading... WOW! I havnlt been here in... too long! I hope all is well? The tarot series is really inspiring! Are they for your own piece of mind or might they also get published? I really am still amazid by your art, for the colour and the freedom that they are painted with.. one thing I can take a great example from.. let go and paint Thanks for the inspiration yet again! 31 Jul 2008 Vineet Aggarwal Loading... nice gallery..especially liked the fairytale kiss 16 Mar 2009 Anton Tikimirov Loading... The decks I sent to Russia, are the talk of the town in Kostroma. Just wanted you to know that there are many Women bowed over your cards....enjoying them. Page: [1] 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13
