✨ New Moon, New Chapter ✨
The Art Witch Journal has a new home and a new rhythm. After completing a full turn of the Wheel, I’ve moved the journal exclusively over to Substack where it can grow more intuitively alongside my evolving practice as a disabled artist.
This edition marks the start of a new cycle, a summer of emergence, creative fire, and intentional living. Inside:
🌿 Studio updates + Sacred Alchemy residency
🌞 Summer Art Witch Musings
🏹 Sagittarius season reflections
🕯️ A journal prompt for your hands, words, or voice
📸 Artist spotlight: Anne Brigman
🔮 Oracle spread + seasonal playlist

Come sit in the light with me.
Some much needed vitamin D and fresh air. Grabbed a coffee and found somewhere nice to sit for a while.

🌀Beltaine Blessings, Creative Alchemists 🌀
The true heart of Beltaine arrives today, the midpoint between Ostara and Litha.
Outside it’s 13 degrees and raining, yet the season still stirs beneath the grey.
Even without the sun, the creative fire burns quietly, in small acts of making, tending, becoming.

🌿✨ Happy Harvest is here! ✨🌿
This week I’ve been working on a fun project. We had a little community vote to choose a name for our new communal garden, and Happy Harvest won! 🐝🌸 After that, they asked me to create the garden sign and I couldn’t resist adding a few ladybugs, bees, and peas for good measure.
It’s now proudly hanging at our apartment complex, a colourful welcome to the space where neighbours come together to grow, share, and connect. 💛
Halloween may be over, but the fire still burns.
While many celebrate Halloween in October, for those of us in the South the true heart of the season arrives now, when spring reaches her peak and the air hums with life.

📍 Naarm | Season of Buarth Gurru — the grass flowering, the bats hunting, the world in bloom.
I’m really excited to being part of the Merri bek Summer Show for a second year alongside these amazing local artists. Please join us November 8, 2pm @counihangallery for the opening.
✨Last night for a little witchy fun, I joined a Tea & Tarot workshop with @ClassBento 🫖✨
Amy was an absolute gem, warm, funny, and so knowledgeable about the magic of tea. She went above and beyond to make the whole event accessible for me, which made the night even more special. I even brewed my own blend to take home, and it’s pure comfort in a cup. I can’t wait to do it again 💫
After weeks of work in the studio, the final touches are done.
She’s on her way to the Counihan Gallery for the Merri-bek Summer Show, Love in Crisis.
A piece about control, silence, and the courage it takes to reclaim autonomy. Opening 2pm Saturday November 8. Hope to see you there.
