This fierce folk creation by Amandine Barbet, stands guardian in the dampened marsh, born of the earth's oldest secrets, a beautiful vision of wild, witchy art.

Day 7 of the #HooklandChristmasTree. We hang the water folk St. Nicholas toy. Not the plump red-coated icon of most, but a ragged bishop fishing for Stay Belows with a ham dangling from his crosier. Yesterday was his feast and a little too much apple brandy was drunk on the canal.

Now comes a winter of ghosts and those beasts that live at the edges of fever when it has turned to shiver. In this season's shortened light, rain grows sharp teeth and wind becomes a spearpoint against bones. Even dawn seems reluctant to hoist hope high. – #DAKilroy, 1982 #Dawn

The sjoufert is a fiery ghost in Flemish folklore who often appears near swamps. In one tale, people who lived near a swamp whistled at him. They fled into their house as the very angry ghost flew behind them. He left four paw prints on their door that never disappeared.

Folk Horror Bunting!
Featuring dark folklore themed linocut illustrations, I've carefully printed the lino directly onto wooden bunting. There are nine different prints across nine bits of plywood measuring approximately 15cm x 13cm each.

Hey it's *Bandcamp Friday* again. The best day to go find that artist who was top of your Spotify unwrapped and actually buy their music, because all the proceeds go to them today. And by god do musicians need it.

Not had much time to be online this last week but can't miss Krampus night!
One of my favourite pieces of Krampus art too.
I also just found this very early example, "Krampus and St. Nicholas from the journal of Carl Baumann 1813-25" that I've not seen before.
