Doll Wunderkammer
A miniature wunderkammer for my wicked doll Thornapple. Featuring small curiosities I found in nature or grew in my garden. A new addition to her portable fold-out wardrobe.

Numen Arts
“We are artists and artisans; seers and diviners; priests; hermits; devout; spirit-led. We are the inheritors of a tradition more ancient than history, a tradition as old as ritual itself.”
Visit Dver on Numen Arts, a group for polytheist artists.

I will lay myself down in the bog
And my breath will escape in a sigh
Indistinguishable from the fog
