Full Moon — 30th May This month’s full moon card became a cinnabar moth. Unlike most of the other cards in this series, this one turned itself sideways into a landscape format rather than portrait. At first I thought I’d somehow got it wrong, but the more I sat with it, the more I loved … Continue reading The Landscape Moth
World Bee Day — 20 May For this year’s World Bee Day card, I wanted to think about the power of small actions. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by environmental issues and feel as though individual choices don’t matter. But I keep returning to the idea that ordinary people, making ordinary choices consistently, can collectively … Continue reading The Power of Ordinary Choices

St George himself wasn’t British, and like much of what we call tradition, the … Continue reading St George’s Day

The shape at the centre is an egg, inspired by Ukrainian pysanky and by the egg motif that has been appearing in the shrine pieces I have been making. An egg feels like the right symbol for this particular moon: something quiet … Continue reading First Steps New Moon 17th April
A circle held, a life unfolding This card is built around a circle. A continuous pattern, interwoven and unbroken — something ancient, something steady. I painted it in metallic tones so it catches the light, sitting against a deep indigo wash that feels like night settling in. At the centre, a small cluster of pink … Continue reading Full Pink Moon – 2nd April
