Finally got my little board book ebook on Black Fairies up via Ingram Spark. Apparently this was a dumb idea as I should have used KDP instead. But live and learn. It's out Oct 15 for pre-order and Nov 1 is pub date. #mythictexture

The Altar

↑ Ancestral connection, Self Actualization, Intentionality, Limitless
❂ Osumare, Ori, Igwe ,The Magician,
↓ Undoing, Self Sabotage, Disregard

The Altar is an avatar of intentional connection across the past, present, and future, with an emphasis on embodied ritual.
an acrylic and oil painting of a femme masquerade dancer. She is covered in tiered and flowing raffia. Emerging from her head is a giant braid in the shape of the infinity symbol. She raises one arm up to the sky and another towards the ground as she almost tips over dancing in a calabash of fire. The calabash sits on top of a platform made of fabric and sand. Surrounding this mount are red and pink flowers and candles. The atmosphere is a cool blue made of waves and clouds that contrast the oranges and warmth of the main figure. Above the figure is a rainbow that stabilizers the scene. The figure wears a large cowry medallion, as a wand and sword float above the large gourd/earthen bowl.

The Spirit Child

↑ New beginnings, Unlimited Potential, Finding yourself
❂ Egbe Orun, The Fool
↓ Disconnection, Stagnation, Naivety

The Spirit Child is a reminder that new beginnings are always possible, that we contain multitudes, and finding yourself is as simple as honouring your journey.
The Spirit Child is an acrylic and oil painting featuring a non-binary child standing on a precipice represented by larger than life veiny stone adjacent hands. They simultaneously look as though they are falling forward with a smile on the face towards the Earth, and drifting upwards back into the heavens. Portions of their body and clothes scatter into a particle effect. This effect is echoed in the field of yellow orange clouds surrounding them. With two ancestral kindred spirits flickering, watching, and protecting the Spirit Child. These moments represent the friends and community on the otherside, and the plane of existence that happens before entering our physical forms. Big Egbe Erun energy
