Small Art Magick things I do 🎨

Digital art edition (with some that can apply to traditional art as well!)

Drawing sigils in unseen layers (I either add another layer above them or lower their opacity, never completely deactivate the enchanted layers)

Drawing animals, plants or symbols associated with deities

Drawing deities in my style

Creating a digital altar. I do one layer for each object on the altar, and change/remove/replace them whenever needed

Creating illustrations for my grimoire or book of shadow. I then recreate or print them in my "physical grimoire", or use them in a digital one

Creating illustrated recipes for some kitchen magic or spells

Creating some kinds of "mandalas", using specific colours and symboles depending on my intentions. This one is also very soothing and I also just do it as way to meditate

Meditating before drawing/while taking breaks to focus more easily

Having my "creativity jar spell" next to me

Using a pencil case of a specific colour to set my intentions more clearly

Lighting a candle while drawing, either one with a certain colour or a certain scent

Putting on music while drawing (a playlist for the mood I'm in/want to get into, or for the mood of my illustration...), or sometimes just ambiance sound videos

I like to think “wildflower” doesn’t just refer to the plants that grow naturally, but also describes their disposition-they don’t just grow in the wild, they grow *wildly*

🌼 Undomesticated AND unruly.

🌼🧚🌼🌼What’s your favorite “wildflower?”

Be spontaneous with your craft.

Create new symbols and meanings and use them.

Tie countless knots into a ribbon endlessly and then decide its magic after the fact.

Make friendship bracelets and trinkets for no reason than to just feel closer to your magic.

Lay in the grass. Run around. Take pictures. Whatever your heart desires.

It's not always about following some pile of reregulations. It's about keeping your soul alive.

I don't know who needs to hear this but writing is one hundred percent a type of art magick! I see these grimoires full of gorgeous sketches and canvases with breathtaking oil paintings and I only WISH I were talented in that way, but writing is just as valid! Write a sonnet for a love spell! Write a short story that doubles as a hypersigil! Even journaling can count as magick: reflection, shadow works, recording your dreams... and it works even better when you use different colored pens or even some corresponding ephemera!

I love the art witch community I just wish writers got a little more love!

Listen. Listen. Hexadecimal code sigil work. Well, maybe it's more like a cousin of sigils. But like, hex codes. They're made up of letters and numbers, right? So you can code a message into them, and then use it in witchcraft. It's a bit like typical color magic, but more intentional.

As an example, say I want a color for protection. First I'll reduce it to protec. P is the sixteenth letter, and so I further reduce it by adding 1 and 6 to get 7. I do the same for all of the letters through T. So P = 7, R = 9, O = 6, and T = 2. Since E and C can both be used in hex codes, I leave them as letters. The result is #7962ec, which is this color:

Which is a nice enough color, but say I think it's not quite right for the protection spell I had in mind. So instead of using protec, I'll instead use Castle, and using a similar method to what I've described above, I get #ca123e, which looks like this:

Now that's a nice bold color, and since it's a red, I can use it as a way to say KEEP OUT. Or something.

The beauty of it is that while there are a finite number of potential colors/shades, for my puny human brain it's effectively infinite, and there's a significantly large number of different combinations I can try to get just the right shade for my intention.

In my opinion this would be best applied to digital witchcraft, but using a platform like Canva I can still design wards, sigils, etc. online and then print them out for real-world use.

So yeah. Hex code magic.
