Spring Bouquet Wooden Box – Woodburning Timelapse

03/17/2021 Mòrwenna Artio Comments 0 Comment

So many little leaves! I lost the count about halfway through (just kidding, I’m not that obsessed that I will actually count them). If you don’t already know about this box or where it comes from, it’s made to accompany Wildera Lenormand, my very first published Oracle Deck! And the illustration is a replica of the ‘Bouquet’ card, one of my favorite designs that I actually painted twice because the first version didn’t make the cut. Also I don’t know…

Wildera Lenormand Wooden Set – A companion to the Cards

03/03/2021 Mòrwenna Artio Comments 0 Comment

Before I even thought about creating an actual Oracle Deck (which I’ve done by the way, and you can preorder it right now! ♥), with illustrated cards I mean, I created one that’s made of wood.

One of the things that I enjoy most doing wood slice art is working on tiny surfaces. I love working in miniature, reaching for the smallest details that my Pyrography Tools will allow me to create.

Wildera Lenormand pre-orders are open!

I’m going to repeat it just for myself because I still can’t believe it: Wildera Lenormand pre-orders are open! HAAAAAAAA! I’m so excited about this news! And stressed. But mostly excited! Okay, let’s calm down. Whooo!

So it’s Friday, I’m just a bit late to finish writing this post, but this week has been wild! First of all, I transferred my shop to a new e-commerce provider. I knew it was going to happen at some point…

Wildera Lenormand Flipthrough

11/24/2020 Mòrwenna Artio Comments 0 Comment

Hi there! I’ve already shared a good number of cards from Wildera Lenormand, the Oracle Deck I created last year. But I thought I’d give you even more with a full flip-through showing all of the 36 illustrated cards. As per usual, I painted this Lenormand Deck using almost only Walnut Ink to give it those Earthy Tones that I love so much. It’s a bridge-size deck with a shiny gold edge, coming in a sturdy two-part box. And at…

Wildera Lenormand Wooden Box – Woodburning Timelapse

11/13/2020 Mòrwenna Artio Comments 0 Comment

Hi there! Here’s another Woodburning Timelapse for you today. As I’m slowly preparing for the future shop reopening, I’m working on some decorations and ornaments that I’d like to offer when the time comes to launch the preorders for Wildera Lenormand. If you don’t already know what I’m talking about, Wildera Lenormand is a 36-card nature-inspired Oracle Deck that I designed in 2019 and that I intend to independently publish, hopefully in the coming months. If you know me and…

Wildera Lenormand – Stories behind the Key & Cross

02/26/2020 Mòrwenna Artio Comments 0 Comment

There’s at least one thing I didn’t tell you yet about Wildera Lenormand: while I was painting the cards, I intentionally sprinkled the images with private jokes, symbols, and secret nods to personal objects. I couldn’t go through all of them in a single article even if I wanted to, so let’s start with a couple of stories for now. We’re going to talk about two cards today: the Key & the Cross. These two form the “Amulets” category of…

Wooden Wildera Lenormand finally complete

02/12/2020 Mòrwenna Artio Comments 0 Comment

You may already know this, but it is actually the second version of my Wooden Wildera Lenormand. Unfortunately, the first one had to stay back in France at my parents’ house because I couldn’t take it with me when we were moving to the USA. But I’m okay with it, it wasn’t a complete set anyway. I don’t really remember which pieces I had the time to finish before I took off. Well, I suppose I could easily find out,…

Wildera Lenormand Cards - Masculine & Feminine

Masculine and Feminine in Wildera Lenormand

08/28/2019 Mòrwenna Artio Comments 0 Comment

Traditionally in the Lenormand system, there are at least two cards that stand a little bit apart from the others, and are not really used or read in the same way. I’m talking about cards 28 and 29, also called the Significators, the Man and the Woman. The thing is, I’ve chosen to rename this couple of cards in my own Wildera Lenormand and went for a different imagery. Let’s talk about that. The first reason that brought me to…

First copy of my Wildera Lenormand

08/08/2019 Mòrwenna Artio Comments 0 Comment

As an Oracle and Tarot collector, I’m always excited when a package finds its way to my mailbox. There’s this thrill when I’m about to open the box and discover for the first time the new companion that I chose to integrate into my spiritual journey. Not to mention the fact that, as far as indie decks are concerned, the packaging itself is always made with a lot of thoughts and care, often including all sorts of little gifts and…

I created a Lenormand Oracle

07/09/2019 Mòrwenna Artio Comments 0 Comment

Last year or so, I started a Big Project: I wanted to create a Lenormand Oracle for myself. First it started as a wooden set, since it is my favorite tool and support to use in my Craft (whether Artistic or Spiritual), with small pictures and symbols representing the 36 elements of this divination system. But then, as I was coming back to illustration and experimenting with walnut ink on paper, it became actual paintings. It’s been a slow process,…
