Spell for Sorrow Print

An A3 sized Giclée print, from my original painting. Printed on beautiful archival quality watercolour paper with vibrant inks.

8 powerful elements to soothe and support you through difficult times. Here’s a chance to lean into the ache and feel what message it has for you. Like sorrow itself, some of these ingredients can be destructive, from the large burrowing Goat Moth, to the badger and the viscous blackthorn branches. And yet, the blackthorn’s early blossom heralds the coming of spring and brighter days, it supports all the moths featured: the Lackey Moth, the Pale Eggar Moth, and the December Moth: impossibly fluffy like a teddy bear, seldom seen and as its name suggests active at the bleakest time of the year. Knapwort is a wild herb famous for taking away black and blue marks from the skin. Lessening your suffering. The fossil, is a Common Lamp Shell so named as they resemble Roman oil lamps. A glimmer of light at the darkest of times. The feather, found on a walk comes from another nocturnal creature; the tawny owl. Regarded as both wise and a bringer of death by the Celts.
