Red Haired Twins
I spent about seven hours making tiny alterations to this image, and still, I am not entirely sure if it is 'complete'. Nonetheless, here they are : Impossibly entwined for their Typepad debut.
The above print will be sold as part of a Limited Edition of 50.

Dreaming hair

Dreaming night, and the spilled ocean hair mirror.
This is what it means to me.

Sailor Blue

I wonder
What is it that she does not wish to see?
Or
Can our perception of that which ordinarily eludes us become enhanced only when we stop trying so hard to perceive it?

The Unusual Suspects
.
My latest contribution to the Somnambulists series. Another sleepy enigma, wearing opalescent gowns and crimson bows, accompanied by those ever faithful black-winged protectors....or are they conspirators?
I am terribly fond of her cobwebbed hair. She could remain just so for years, centuries even, and the passage of time will have no discernible effect upon her. This is what I so dearly love about fairy tales and ghost stories.
Silver, crimson, and ice.
In the Gloaming, Sukie Walks
Inspired, for the most part, by the ghostly tales of J.H. Riddell. (See further down the page for a link to her work).
And for reading material....

I sometimes think that I ought to put together a little inspiration-based folder over at Flickr...at least they would all be quite organized there, and live happily ever after amongst themselves. I might devote some time to this over the coming weekend.

Two brand new installments of the Moomins being just the ticket for the onset of Autumn.

Although, let's face it, where would I be without my regular fix of ghost fiction?
I am almost approaching the close of the most darkly wonderful collection of ghost stories by J.H. Riddell: discovered, amongst many more supernatural compilations of the Victorian era, at a remarkably (almost unbelievably) low price over at Amazon UK. This perfectly lovely circumstance enabled me to purchase a veritable pile of them all at once, which will go some way towards stemming the withdrawal issues that almost always affect me upon the completion of a much loved selection of spectral tales.
