Prompt #4 of @illustrious.belle ’s #mothsandmushrooms #witchtober challenge. Yes, I know we’re a week and a half into November. This prompt is inky cap mushroom and death’s head hawkmoth. Reference from Getty. I’ll finish the last two by the end of November, I swear! XD;
Prompt # 3 from @illustrious.belle’s#mothsandmushrooms witchtober challenge list, luna moth and indigo lactarius. This one started as a 30-min sprint study of a Leopold Carl Muller painting, one of five portraits he painted of a young Egyptian woman named Nasleh. I quite liked how it came out so I worked on it a bunch more and turned it into my witchtober for…October 14th. I’ll finish them all by the end of November, I swear!
Moth magic is about transformation, mysteries and the occult, and in many cultures moths have associations with the spirits and world of the dead. They are tied to both darkness and light, and can serve as guides through one and into the other.
