Title: The Promise. Acrylic, ink, pencil, paper on wood. 2025. Did you promise someone forever? Or did you promise something to yourself? With all of your heart? Was this promise a source of inspiration, or a heavy weight of limiting beliefs?

Any native artists out there? Has anyone else been lucky enough to see a booger dance? Hear the rattles shaking in the darkness? The sounds of our ancestors reminding us to be respectful of ourselves and the world we live in? #cherokee #boogerdancer

Magic symbols in my opinion have hidden meanings, if we pay attention. The overall shape is a circle, which could meaning unity. Snakes shed their skin, maybe we can shed old ideas. The snakes connect at the head and tail, while the center is intertwined. Integration of you, ego and your shadow?

#Selu #cornmother #nativeamerican #choctaw Title: Selu. Mixed media on wood panel. Native stereotypes among native artists runs rampant. Rather than draw more buffaloes and teepees, I decided to create something more authentic based on the story of corn mother, Selu.

#shadowwork #sigil #ancestors #sorcery #unconsciousness #past #mixedmedia #typography Title: Intent. Mixed media. Shadow work can be very difficult and painful. Often the information that you learn is somewhat obscure, but hopefully, the intent is based on healing and self awareness.

The New Moon, Mixed media. Hecate is often represented with a crown upon her head. I decided to reimagine her crown as a bold and magical artifact that both inspires and motivates others to pursue their spiritual journey. #hekate #witch #witchcraft🔮 #goddess #triplemoon #triplemoongoddess

It was a strange experience for sure, but it enlighten me, learning that my “preferences” were not traditional.

Blackwing Design @jasonwalkup.bsky.social · Apr 8

Omg I went to falls creek years ago. It was a strange place, lots of devoted baptists vs young folks wanting to enjoy life. Lots of the adult staff felt like groomers.

Very true! We are a part of divinity, nature and the universe. However, I think we may be trapped physically in a prison of sorts. Only once we are able to see past the illusions of a man made god can we start learning about who we truly are. I support your journey!

Title: Three of Swords. Mixed media, 8X10. Grief and loss are unavoidable. What do you need to lose to improve your life? Negative self image, vices or something else? And what are you doing to heal yourself?
