This particular supermoon is also a Blue Moon, which is the term used to describe the second full moon in a calendar month. The Super Blue Moon is a rare celestial event that has been a source of fascination and wonder throughout history. It's a reminder of the moon's influence on our lives—from the tides of our oceans to our emotions and spiritual practices. The Super Blue Moon is a perfect time for reflection, meditation, and setting intentions for the coming month. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/54d3993c-848c-4907-8eba-2c0199da829f/Anne+Keefe+art+Wild+Moon+Craft+Art+and+Tarot+%289%29.png Painting with the Moon - August’s Twin Moons - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/4c9c59cd-73c7-4eca-8392-2d2b87e94b3b/tarot+card.png Painting with the Moon - August’s Twin Moons - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/4c9c59cd-73c7-4eca-8392-2d2b87e94b3b/tarot+card.png Painting with the Moon - August’s Twin Moons - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/4c9c59cd-73c7-4eca-8392-2d2b87e94b3b/tarot+card.png Painting with the Moon - August’s Twin Moons - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/2cd6a24d-a95f-4f6f-98e7-17428683574f/image-asset.jpg Painting with the Moon - August’s Twin Moons - The Sturgeon Moon August 1 The first full moon of August, also known as the Sturgeon Moon, graced our skies on August 1st. The name "Sturgeon Moon" comes from the Native American tribes living around the Great Lakes and Lake Champlain. August was the month when the sturgeon fish were most readily caught, hence the name. This moon also has other names, including the Green Corn Moon, the Grain Moon, and the Red Moon, due to the reddish hue it often takes on in the sultry summer haze. The Sturgeon Moon is a time of illumination, realization, and fulfillment. It's a time when the seeds we've planted start to bear fruit, and our intentions manifest into reality. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/4c9c59cd-73c7-4eca-8392-2d2b87e94b3b/tarot+card.png Painting with the Moon - August’s Twin Moons - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/4c9c59cd-73c7-4eca-8392-2d2b87e94b3b/tarot+card.png Painting with the Moon - August’s Twin Moons - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/4c9c59cd-73c7-4eca-8392-2d2b87e94b3b/tarot+card.png Painting with the Moon - August’s Twin Moons - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/4c9c59cd-73c7-4eca-8392-2d2b87e94b3b/tarot+card.png Painting with the Moon - August’s Twin Moons - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/4c9c59cd-73c7-4eca-8392-2d2b87e94b3b/tarot+card.png Painting with the Moon - August’s Twin Moons - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/4c9c59cd-73c7-4eca-8392-2d2b87e94b3b/tarot+card.png Painting with the Moon - August’s Twin Moons - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://wildmooncraft.com/paintingwiththemoon/qmtf5v60ehmad193felo5jeeuk0xg8 monthly 0.5 2023-07-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/54d3993c-848c-4907-8eba-2c0199da829f/Anne+Keefe+art+Wild+Moon+Craft+Art+and+Tarot+%289%29.png Painting with the Moon - Best Audiobooks For Wild Creatives - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/8e69c6d2-b5e4-4bd4-bda1-c2393bd1cbea/image-asset.jpg Painting with the Moon - Best Audiobooks For Wild Creatives - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://wildmooncraft.com/paintingwiththemoon/the-buck-moon monthly 0.5 2023-06-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/992dc869-b64e-4d2b-87f4-18c885332864/Anne+Keefe_original+artists+books_contemporary+symbolist+art-36.jpg Painting with the Moon - The Buck Moon - Make it stand out A recent art journal spread that captures the spirit of this full moon.

I was preparing for my medicine journey, and wanted a way to bring some tokens or talismans with me to help ground me and set intentions for the journey. In addition to the natural and celestial imagery I collaged onto the surface of the box, I also added some mineral tokens, including tourmaline, smokey quartz, sea salt, and a fossilized ammonite. Organic elements included a dried shimeji mushroom, a rose bud, wildflowers and sunflower petals. I also had a small vial of sea water and incorporated a sea urchin spine along the box’s inside cover. Gold foil wings are the central and grounding imagery of the box. Bits of thread also wind around the box, holding a dangling crescent moon in the top corner. Along with my Tarot cards, the imagery of the box and the talismans contained within helped me to feel comfortable and prepared for the unknown. Setting up the altar was a way to enter into the heart space of the journey and its presence helped me to invoke spiritual guidance along the way. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/1685540029948-4Y260PEKT5NEYFPVPU5M/Anne+Keefe+mixed+media+altar+boxes+collage+assemblage+artist-036.jpg Painting with the Moon - Altered Altar Boxes - Embodying Sacred Space Altered Altar Boxes https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/5b8177ea-0c41-41a5-8179-58916cfb3bf6/Anne+Keefe+mixed+media+altar+boxes+collage+assemblage+artist-063.jpg Painting with the Moon - Altered Altar Boxes - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/1685497167053-9DCPKGK9BLNIPKXLFMHW/Anne+Keefe+mixed+media+altar+boxes+collage+assemblage+artist-102.jpg Painting with the Moon - Altered Altar Boxes - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://wildmooncraft.com/paintingwiththemoon/the-artists-tarot monthly 0.5 2023-06-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/4e0c6738-5955-477e-9742-e23af8b19c90/Anne+Keefe+The+Artists+Tarot+Journals-2.jpg Painting with the Moon - The artist’s tarot - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/f6eb104f-a58c-49c9-8170-6b804db82ccc/Screen+Shot+2023-02-26+at+11.11.34+AM.png Painting with the Moon - The artist’s tarot - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/c8fc9d67-432c-4081-9fa6-819ca9d679b2/Anne+Keefe+The+Artists+Tarot+Journals-4.jpg Painting with the Moon - The artist’s tarot - New MOon nEW magic Learn to read Tarot like an artist!

While I was committed to practicing, I knew I wasn’t speaking in my own voice yet. They say it takes something like 7 years of living full-time in another language to achieve actual fluency. I wonder if that is the same for modes of artistic expression? A poet learning to paint—the skills are only theoretically transferable, but not on the level of the body—the gesture, the brushwork. https://wildmooncraft.com/paintingwiththemoon/the-snow-moon monthly 0.5 2022-06-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/1644702700784-Z4YBO6Y31IANPYFQM3TD/unsplash-image-SE8nfHbQtrU.jpg Painting with the Moon - The Snow Moon - FulL MoOn iN Leo February 16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/d0df7031-3944-469e-9a50-d1d64a7735c0/Scargo+Moon+original+abstract+painting+fine+art+gifts+found+object+assemblage-054.jpg Painting with the Moon - The Snow Moon - Make some moon water! I usually set out some jars and bottles full of spring water to make moon water in the full moon. It’s as simple as placing water in the light of the moon, perhaps meditating on your intentions, and then using that water in a meaningful way. I use moon water in my studio for painting; it’s a ritual that helps me to stay connected to my intuition. https://wildmooncraft.com/paintingwiththemoon/100-days-of-art monthly 0.5 2022-12-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/9afd4aa9-cee8-4d97-9189-77d125ceddba/2179800A-2B93-43AF-A976-13A0A09E3B99_1_105_c.jpeg Painting with the Moon - Come out and play!

It has a beautiful depth to it, and offers a nice range of values from a light wash to darker pigmentation, depending on how much water you are using. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/eb476da2-d004-4b84-960b-bd99172d5965/Scargo+Moon+original+abstract+painting+fine+art+gifts+found+object+assemblage-027.jpg Painting with the Moon - My favorite art supplies: Payne’s Gray edition - Posca Pens Although technically not named Payne’s Gray, I absolutely love Posca’s acrylic paint markers. The Slate Gray color does not come in the basic sets of primary colors, and so I buy these markers individually in fine point and especially in this thick-nibbed chisel point. In this series of figure studies, I used the Posca marker to add a clean, graphic outline to the figure. (The background of this painting uses Golden acrylics, discussed above). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/1642616802086-PGGLMYYMYFQKUFOG0XQU/unsplash-image-OqHteug9BWY.jpg Painting with the Moon - My favorite art supplies: Payne’s Gray edition a fog you feel on your skin, the smell of the sea, the sky in the moment just before dawn, a storm cloud heavy with rain. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/80f0a440-e81d-4851-b902-e9ef8308f724/Scargo+Moon+original+abstract+painting+fine+art+gifts+found+object+assemblage-022.jpg Painting with the Moon - My favorite art supplies: Payne’s Gray edition - Golden Acrylics For acrylic paints, I love Golden brand. I find they are more richly pigmented, and they have a variety of mediums that can be used to adjust the texture, transparency, and weight of the paint. The Golden fluid acrylic in Payne’s Gray is similar in consistency to acrylic ink, and thins and drips beautifully for messier abstract work and translucent layering. The Golden artist’s acrylic in Payne’s Gray is a staple of mine. I use it in most paintings, including the seascape here in which I used the fluid acrylic in washes in the lighter areas and the regular body acrylic to create the denser, more opaque areas of the water. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/88c97600-fc90-4de9-8a4d-ed2526030bce/93D1FE8C-E05D-4214-9ED9-278BEB4ECCA5.jpg Painting with the Moon - My favorite art supplies: Payne’s Gray edition - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/0e4817cf-8af4-449d-bb03-c9a1baee3722/Scargo+Moon+original+abstract+painting+fine+art+gifts+found+object+assemblage-018.jpg Painting with the Moon - My favorite art supplies: Payne’s Gray edition - Daler Rowley In terms of inks, my favorite Payne’s Gray is an FW artist’s ink by British maker Daler Rowley. It’s acrylic pigment-based, water-resistant ink. I like to use it from the dropper and then dilute it to achieve more subtle tones that are similar to watercolor. Even a light wash in this ink will be water-resistant when dry. which allows for successive layers of color to be added over top. In this painting, I used the ink in a lighter wash for the sky and kept it less diluted for the water. Of course this ink can also be used for calligraphy and drawing. The ink works best on a heavier, absorbent paper. A thicker watercolor paper works, but I especially like it on this Vellum Bristol board paper by Canson. This surface really absorbs the pigment and is sturdy enough to handle even some scraping away of the pigment. https://wildmooncraft.com/paintingwiththemoon/download-my-witchy-2022-moon-calendar-for-free monthly 0.5 2022-12-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/c0517602-6b92-4f34-82b9-359cf2ec9635/IMG_4183.jpg Painting with the Moon - Download my printable 2022 Moon Calendar (for free!) - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/db2a7daa-943a-4eaa-89b4-71ad0b368cad/Moon+Calendar+2022+%28Pinterest+Pin+%281080+x+1920%29%29.jpg Painting with the Moon - Download my printable 2022 Moon Calendar (for free!) - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/609471597db4356267c1e3b3/1640295345299-34HUK6004DS6I5YDM4B5/unsplash-image-YGJNtff_hSo.jpg Painting with the Moon - Download my printable 2022 Moon Calendar (for free!) - Happy New Year!
