Making nature art // growing food // finding magic 💫
I have been struggeling to be creative, experiencing a bit of #artblock. I think I was very much too in my head about the art I make and what I want it to say so I'm so happy I managed to let go and just enjoy colour with this one.

The oak tree in the valley, seconds before the sun is gone looks absolutely glorious.

Hermann is enjoying the autumn morning sun very much, and I think it suits him :)

My little piece of fall colours visible from my porch where I am sat tucked in a blanket with a big mug of tea and a book, being sick.

My very big coloured pencil panorama drawing of the wildlife in my home hills is finally about done! I'll need to take a pic of the whole wide thing next.

Hermann, my assistant cat and I did a first little sketch in my new workspace yesterday. (The beams and wall behind us are 250 years old!)

A gift that made me furious while making it - Claudias Dahlia for her Birthday.

My garden looking all moody in the first morning light, a fresh fall chill in the air making me come alive.

Hi there, I'm Elli - I make #nature and #wildlife art, often with a folkloric twist. ✨️
I also share photos of nature around me and my #permaculture vegetable and wildflower garden.

Cosy fall bonfire season is upon us 🍂 I took a couple of photos in night mode that turned out pretty interesting imo. Might reference them for future paintings too :) #photography #nature #fall #autumn #cosy #naturephotography #spooky #witchy #natureart

Loosely working on these magnificient sunflowers from my garden to focus on something simple :)

The sky is giving me life these days!
I am having a horrible time, I keep waking at night hearing planes that started flying over my area more frequently lately so quiet moments like this are healing 🥲

I went on my little #mentalhealth walk today feeling all low and hopeless and this felt like a gift.

Some views of our very #wild #garden that was just green lawn until 4 year ago. Wild flowers have come in so quickly and every year it becomes more alive. And there is more harvest too. #rewilding #gardening #nature #permaculture #nodig #foodforest #solarpunk #hope

The left corner of my panoramic landscape #drawing coming along nicely! My dog Lucia has a vital role in it :) I think I am on the last stretch of work here, I might post the full drawing soon!

Gonna work a bit more on this little guy today, but very happy with him so far! He is a brown long eared bat and common at dusk where I live.

Very happy with some changes to this fox I made today! Just a small part of the giant drawing I am working on.
