    Rachel Blackwell

    “My paintings come from the enchanted realm of imagination and are often inspired by the pockets of wildness in rural England. The landscapes are often populated by woodland animals, mythical creatures, fairies, goddesses and nature spirits which weave stories through the landscape of my paintings. I use both traditional and digital painting to conjure a whimsical realm which softens the edges of a world that can sometimes be too sharp.”

  • Jane Crowther

Whilst based in North London, she designed a small range of greeting cards, initially selling them at craft fairs alongside her paintings. These first cards featured a cute little bug character with a plastic nose and wobbly eyes, and were initially hand-painted with the noses and eyes glued on by hand. As there was nothing else like them on the market, agents and distributors began to show an interest, and the orders started to roll in. Since then Jane's business has grown and the ranges increased - a selection of which you can buy from Moondragon.

  • Tamsin Abbott

    Tamsin Abbott is a stained glass illustrator who's work is rooted in the British countryside. She is not only inspired by the landscape's beauty and drama but also the invisible tapestry of myth and magic which is interwoven with its flora and fauna.  

    Tamsin aims to imbue all her work with a sense of this magic, to do justice both to the subject matter and to the glass itself; a material with alchemical qualities and a mystery of its own. 

    Most of Tamsin's artwork is painted onto English mouthblown glass and fired to give a strong woodcut-like image against the luscious colours of the glass.

    Wendy Andrew

    "The shimmering beauty of the natural world inspires me and the dream-like realms of myth are my passion. Once upon a timeless time we enter the misty realms of long ago and forever. Here the ancient stories are told that teach us of the cylic nature of life... of the beneficence of Mother Earth, Her strength and Her fragility of the battles and harmonies between male and female... and on and on... This is the timeless time of our inner knowing and here life truths are known. My wish is that my paintings will act as portals through which you, the viewer, can enter these mythic realms and be enriched by what you find there..."
