✨️🌱From Acorns🌱✨️

Dashing through the autumn wood
Past leaves of copper ‘n’ gold
Leaping moss and fallen logs
Tight to her hands they hold...

🐈‍⬛🎃Pumpkin Witch🎃🐈‍⬛

Double, double spice and sprinkle
Cauldron glub and lanterns twinkle

A dozen fragrant cinnamon sticks
Stir them ’round and make it quick...

Trees take shape within the mist... 🌲☁️ (There is something very meditative about this sort of painting. 🤔)

🌉🖌️Bridge-building in progress… pixel by pixel. What kind of bridge would you build if you could dream it into being?

A wish. A splish. A golden fish⁠

Misty, silver, dreamy moon⁠
Turquoise scent of hushed lagoon⁠

Bob of lily-leaves so green⁠
The glassy lap, waters serene⁠...

A close-up of a glowing golden key dangling on a chain, floating against a blurred background. The key shimmers as if alive with light, hinting at mystery and unseen thresholds.

On a gooey cobbler day⁠
In the deepest drone of summer⁠
Steeps the stories of sweet souls⁠

Amber lights are twinkling
Glinting in the gloaming
Padding on the mossy floor
Her fairy feet are roaming

Craggy branches, needles
Tickle as she passes
Shivering her mothy wings
Like gentle winds through grasses

“When you’re touched by magic, nothing’s ever quite the same again. What really makes me sad is all those people who never have the chance to know that touch. They’re too busy... so they shut the door without really knowing it was there to be opened in the first place.” ― Charles de Lint
