Mystery and Shadows has it’s very own blog! Hello!
I have first post nerves…. I guess I will start with what I am working on at the moment 
Lady Bones: Lady Bones is a tiny desert faery, reading the future in the tiny bones she collects as she wanders across the red sands surrounding her home. The colours in this piece so far are very rich, dark reds and purples for the desert dunes with a twilight shy. The Lady herself is sitting on the sand in front of the ancient, half-buried human skull that is her home. She has a small bag of bones nearby, and the husk of some strange seed in front of her – it is into this that she castes the bones. Within them she reads the stories of the desert, and the delicate patterns of potential futures.
Selene: Selene is a moon goddess painting, my vision of the many moon goddesses that cast their silver light in mythology. I’ve always been fascinated by moons, and astronomy. There is an infinite universe out there, perhaps more than one – a multiverse – and I sometimes feel drawn to paint within that realm. Etoile and The Traveller are other pieces of mine that definitely have an outer space theme.
I have a list of ideas for new paintings as well – a pixie leading a traveller (the viewer) astray, the midmight muse who can cause sleepless nights full of intense creative energy, another Traveller, and a Glauconer. So, that’s all for now… thanks for reading
