'E is for Echo the nymph.
Cursed, all she could speak was the last words said to her.
She fell in love with beautiful Narcissus but, being able to only repeat his own words back to him, he spurned her. Heartbroken, Echo spent the rest of her life alone until her bones withered and she ceased to be.
All that remains of her today is her voice.
Narcissus was cursed for his actions. He died withering away in front of his own reflecftion in a lake, heart full of a love that could not be - just like Echo.
But instead of a corpse, all he left behind on the lakeside was a single daffodil growing in his place.'

Silphium was a plant used in classical antiquity, nowadays considered extinct, for both medicinal and culinary use. It’s most famed (and debated) use is as both an aphrodisiac and abortifacient. Additionally, it is thought that the common symbol for a heart was inspired by the shape of the plant’s seed pod – depicted on coins of the time –, strengthening the idea of it as a plant of love and sexuality.

For the “NO. 26 Zine”  published by Society6. I was assigned the letter H and chose to work with imagery of the Hierophant from tarot fame - H looks like a path between two pillars and the Hierophant bridges the gap between the mortal and that which is holy.

Thank you to Society6 and Anthony Troester for letting me take part

Mock editorial based on an article detailing the opening of London's first cat café.

A Mari Lwyd is a Welsh winter tradition, where a horse's head is mounted on a pole covered in cloth and adorned with bells and ribbons. Carried around by a group of people, the party would go door-to-door and attempt entry by challenging people to a game of pwnco - rhymes and song.
