The Occult Shop by Sarah Lawless
8″ x 11″
I’ve been working on illustrations to sell as prints at both the Gathering and in the botanica. Some I mailed to friends so I’m waiting until they receive them before posting – want them to be a surprise! This one, “The Occult Shop” I drew as an ink illustration in November of 2007, but didn’t get around to finishing it ’til yesterday. Done in black archival ink with water soluble coloured pencils – I absolutely love those pencils, my granmother gave them to me when I was young and I treasured them so much I hardly ever used them and so still have them today. The saturated colour is just so much fun to work with!
Love this. Love your style. Would love to have a little store. Without the headache of actually having to worry about business.
Absolutely gorgeous and so finely detailed! You are wonderfully talented
You are one artistic lady in a variety of ways..cookies, cooking, pyrography, crafting… I love your style.
Sarah, this is pretty much how I see the store. I recognize some of the inspiration too. Is the tea shop just out of sight?
Thank you so much ladies! I’ve been inspired by a recent project with a friend to get back into illustrating again, it was my first artistic medium, but it’s been a while because I got completely sidetracked once I discovered woodcarving and textiles!
Hehehe Sparrow, yep that’s “our shop” the bookshelves and tea area are off to the left…
such a lovely pic: this looks like you in your dream job!
Hehehe a little magic through art…. you’re on to me
Nice picture!
I liked the knifes and the small demon statues.
I myself have been drawing some pictures of a
dark art-store myself. filled with skulls, potions, voodoo, shrunken heads, statues etc etc…
