Halloween (Samhain, if you’re pagan) is just two over weeks away! We like to add new cards for each celebration as we go through the year. This year we found these two by Angie Livingstone and Hannah Willow :) moondragoncards.com/collections/... #Halloween #Samhain #Witch #Pagan #Owl #GreetingCard
A pale-coloured owl sits on a glowing orange pumpkin. A starry night and full moon shine behind. A border of bare blue trees with blue leaves at the bottom surround the scene.The silhouettes of five witches in long black dresses, pointed hats, and outlined in gold, dancing around a large fire at night. Black cats sit near their feet. They dance in a grassy clearing surrounded by bare trees with jack-o-lanterns hanging from the branches. Embers from the fire sparkle upwards and around the trees, and glowing orange full moon shines through the trees.

OUTLOOK (2025) Acrylic on Canvas - 12” x 9” 

All of my Lumen paintings feature a figure struggling to reach the light, against seemingly overwhelming travails. In OUTLOOK we see the moment of breakthrough and discovery, a daunting obstacle overcome. #art
A boy rests on a ledge to peer out an open panel in a huge concrete facade that is divided into recessed rectangles. At the intersection of the concrete support beams, the cross braces rust over. Each rectangle on the wall contains a different shape (circle, hexagon, 8-pointed star) sealed and closing off the view outside. Below the boy, a panel tumbles down as he props his hand on the rusted metal frame. Beyond is blue-gray sky.

Once upon a time there was a foolish woman who at sat her kitchen table, late into the evening, 7 days a week, painting pebbles, wooden hearts and destroying her neck. She massages it all the time and keeps on going. Because that's what we do isn't it. #womensart #samcannonart

The Ravens flew in and got straight down to canoodling this morning before they had any breakfast! I was thinking, as I was sat with them, that if someone offered me a million pounds to not have the Ravens any more I wouldn’t take it. They are priceless to me 🥰

Got faced with the question of how AI is any different than how I or other artists draw in programs (Procreate, Clip Studio, Photoshop, etc), and I truly had some choice words (a very long and boring explanation). That being said, the misconception of us pressing a button and art being made lives on

Happy #NationalBadgerDay. I've seen them fleetingly in the woods behind my studio, and they are beautiful creatures. The art here is by my friend and Dartmoor neighbour Danielle Barlow. www.daniellebarlowart.com
An autumn blessing by Danielle Barlow, with a watercolour painting of a bagder: When hips and haws bring dwindling days and fiery leaves set the land ablaze, kindle the fire and welcome all whose hearts respond to autumn's call.

It was a honour to help Brian & Wendy Froud (artists, folklorists, and the puppet film designers behind The Dark Crystal and Labyrinth) to turn their vision for this book into reality. Happy Book Publication Day to both of them, and to all the brilliant women writers who contributed to the volume.
Photograph: A copy of "Brian Froud's Green Women" sits on a background of moss. The book contains "provocative portraits from the grandfather of faerie art Brian Froud," along with "words and stories of fantasy and myth from acclaimed women writers around the world." The book's publication day is October 6. Publisher: Abrams Books, New York.

Hi again #PortfolioDay :) I'm a sculptor in Scotland working mostly with paper mache. I make adorable mysterious gremlin figures and all sorts of otherworldly little critters!
Three paper mache gremlins with black glass eyes and huge ears, standing in a row on a white surface in front of ceramic jars and decorative dried oats. They wear cloaks painted with bright acrylic inks: one is orange and red, one green and teal, and one purple and pink.A paper mache tortoise on an off-white surface next to dried heather twigs. The shell of this tortoise is purple and pink, and the body is a mix of greens.A paper mache elephant sculpture with butterfly wings for ears and antennae made from metal wire. It is bright lime green and yellow in colour, with red and purple accents, and is standing next to a jar with dried plants and small patches of moss green dyed lichen.A paper mache gremlin sitting in a boat shaped like a crescent moon. It is painted in a speckled mix of ochre, white, turquoise, and lavender, and photographed next to decorative dried oats.

Gorgeous art by Jane Crowther (we have these as greeting cards, should there be someone you think would appreciate it). #Nature #Wildlife #WildlifeArt #Art #Cats #BirdArt #Foxes #GreetingCards
A red fox sits in a field watching their two kits playing. A group of autumnal trees, one with red leaves, stand behind them, and shrubs to the left and right. The sun shines above, and a group of birds fly over the trees. Overall colours are tan, brown and orange.A black cat sits looking up at an orange and red butterfly fluttering a short distance above their head. The cat is surrounded by tall flower stems, with a carpet of flowers in front of them. A pale sun shines overhead. Overall colours are tan and browns, apart from the colourful butterfly.A simply-shaped rotund bird sits on top of a tall leafy stem, beak open. The bird has a pink floral chest, decorated brown back and tail, and a white eye surround by yellow. More stems, colourful and decorative, surround the main stem, with pale, undecorated stems on each side. Musical notes rise in the air away from the bird. A pale sun hangs above. The background is a mottled tan.A softly-drawn meadow filled with colourful flowers. Butterflies flit over the meadow, and a pale yellow sun shines above undulated distant hills against a teal sky. The meadow rises towards the left of the design, ending in a hedge and trees, and a group of birds flying above.

3 visits from the Ravens this morning and this last one was so lovely. Sound up to hear 3 of Gravy’s calls. One is the hoho contact call. Chips flies in and then they do some bonding. Before I got to know these 2 I hadn’t realised how affectionate birds were to one another 🥰
