The Sorceress



When TheBlack Cat Jewellery Store sent me their colourful skull charm bracelet, I knew that it deserved something special.  I love charm bracelets, but too often the dangling charms are too far apart and the overall look tends to be a bit sparse. Not this one, however, the little skulls almost overlap and the silvery chain-link is rich and beautifully crafted.




With the help of the ever stylish Sidonius I came up with this Sorceress/Voodoo Lady shoot. I was lucky to have had just about everything I needed in my dress-up chest (also known as - my closet).  



It was rather cold when we were taking the photos, so , for a change, I decided my posterior has precedence over art, and we kept a blanket on the ground to keep me from freezing. Villy V however, risked a frozen knee while trying to get the best shot!



It’s truly amazing what manages to accumulate in your closet and storage spaces when you aren’t looking. I have been carrying some of these thing around with me through at least 5 moves and several hundred kilometres, and almost forgot about them completely, until it was time to assemble this photoshoot.



I also managed to persuade my dear friend, Ivy, to lend me the shawl she had just finished making to use in the photo shoot. The colours of the bracelet and the shawl complemented each other perfectly.
I am a great admirer of her skill and art, and getting to play around with one of her masterpieces was a pleasure indeed!

Until next time!
