Acanthine Ogham An image that I drew of Ogma, where I experimented with depicting the ogham script in a highly elaborate manner using the acanthus, a design that I am quite fond of in antique books and furniture. On the left are the seven b's or the letter beith. This is the very first thing ever written in Ogham, written by Ogma as a warning to Lugh that his wife would be carried off seven times lest she is guarded by a birch tree (beith). On the right is Ogma's name written using Order Ogham, where the word is written normally before also being written backwards beginning from the first letter hence A-M-G-O-G-M-A This will serve as the title page in a batch of leatherbound journals that I am making and will be selling on my shop.

FUNDRAISER FOR THE FAMILY This trusted & adored family, a cherished part of our artistic community, has lost their home and all earthly possessions to a wildfire. Times like these are when we all need to come together. The family has asked for anonymity and I’m respecting that. This tragedy has been confirmed and we need to come together to help. To provide a small relief to a family in crisis. Please consider contributing and at the very least sharing.

The Artisanal Auction will be opening up again soon. The goal this time is to raise funds for a trusted artist and member of our community who has lost her home and belongings to a wildfire. For her family’s privacy and safety we are keeping her identity anonymous. I’m sure you can understand why. I am actively seeking artists, crafters and makers willing to donate.

"Red deer frontlet, probably used as a shaman’s head-dress, from the Mesolithic site of Star Carr (North Yorkshire, c. 11,000 years ago). The antlers were removed or split to obtain the splinters, and the skull was perforated."

🏇 Ivan Yakovlevich Bilibin (1900).
