It seems these days all I want to draw are tangles of poisonous plants and I can’t say I hate it! Due, most likely, to my constant longing to be engulfed in dewy, lush gardens at all times. 🌿 So, obviously, I’m pretty excited about what’s happening in my sketchbook. Here’s a glimpse of a drawing that is particularly dear to me and will be released this Autumn! 🍂 #poisonappleprintshop #sketchbook #datura #belladonna #saturn #poisonousplants

My work on this interpretation of the Strength card has truly aligned with current events in my life.

I’ve arrived at a massive obstacle a bit sooner than I had planned and have found myself to be unprepared. I feel like I’ve been struggling a lot lately and now, with this recent upheaval, it seems I’m even farther away from a reprieve than I had thought.

Turns out tansy is a bit too detailed for both my pencil and my patience … ⠀
Here are some fun facts: In the past tansy has been used against intestinal worms, but has nowadays been replaced with medicine less toxic to our own bodies. Because it is so toxic, it has also been used to induce miscarriages, although it was just as likely to kill you. It can be used to repell insects and makes not a bad insecticide. You can make dye from it. When hit by enough sunlight it works as a compass plant with leaves pointing north or south.⠀
You should really not eat it.⠀
