Amarna's Artists!
This is just a little bit about the Amarna's Artists. They are all family and friends of mine and have such a lot of talent and commitment.
About Jennifer...Amarna
I have followed the Wiccan path since I was 14 years old. I used to live in Burnley, Lancashire for a few years. This is near the famous Pendle Hill and the even more Famous Pendle Witches. I took up learning about Wicca and other Pagan traditions at this time, but my heart was with Wicca. I did not find it, more like it found me!
Over the years I grew within myself and am learning more each and every day. I have even started to teach basic guidelines to several of my friends who are very interested. But like I say, it would take a life time to learn and you would still learn something new even then! Over 20 years of following my Path I am now a Priestess in Wicca and have started my own group, who are wonderful Ladies, full of life and ambition.
I have three wonderful children and just the one wonderful husband!! They have always supported me and are my heart and strength. I have Three sisters who are unique in their own individual ways...as is everyone. My Mom...Alexandra....is my inspiration as she says I am hers! We work as a team in most things we do.
I enjoy making different things; have to keep my hands busy all the time! The sets I have on auction are made with love and the feedback I have received have been well worth the preparation and hard work. I make many different items, from Altar cloths, Tarot Bags, Witches bottle sets and hand written spells and rituals. All are different as each is hand crafted and therefore unique. I love anything artistic and enjoy writing, painting and making various concoctions! I always put my 'all' into each item I make, it does take a lot of energy and time, but my heart is in it and I think it always will be.
I also read the Tarot, although I have reached a point in my life where the cards may not be necessary as I can do a reading by just holding an item (jewellery, trinket) of the person I am reading at the time. I also believe strongly in my Dreams, these are like constant messages for me that guide me from day to day. I have had many Dreams where I have been able to tell a friend or family member of an event or message that they need to hear.
I also have many requests to make up Sets of various items from friends, family and even people online....who soon become friends also! I am happy to do this and am always willing to help where I can.
About Alexandra
I have been an active Pagan and a Solitary Witch for almost thirty years. An art college 'drop-out' I have still occupied myself with all manners of creative art and in particular in recent years, modeling with clay.
I have produced many sculptures, mostly with a Pagan flavour, and feel that this is an outlet for my spirituality.
Using the four elements to create my pieces, I often find that my mind is most calm when I am working the clay, providing clarity for whatever I am thinking about when working.
The earth gives me the clay, water aids in the modeling process and air dries the finished piece. Finally it is fired, making the journey complete and permanent; a statement of something within me. It is fair to say that the finished piece most certainly contains more than the elements it is composed of.
I am happy to comply with requests for specific items and will Endeavour to produce a high quality piece - with just a little extra ingredient; i.e. I will imbue healing, luck, love, etc., whilst modeling the piece.
