Witches got/get such a bad rap. If people would of just left them alone, maybe they wouldn't have put cures on them.

VERY Cool...i like my witches VERY earthy & sorta pungent. like Goya's witches!!!!!! yes, i like looking at his paintings & feeling their pungent warmth. sighhhhh

our 2016 calendar was Frazetta which was total LOVE eveverrrryday. & this year, we went with witches & unfortunately, i gotta say, it's NOT as magical as Frazetta or the Twilight Zone calendar year either. it's important to have daily inspiration when using & enjoying your calendar.

i remember a few posts ago, someone else suggesting...."witches thru the years" or something like that. me & one of the guys at the comic book store have been trying to find the post (cause he remembers it too) & we CAN'T find it...HAHAHAHHAHAHA!!! we're still looking tho. : D `

Bean, what a find! Some really reach the depths of darkness. Scary!

Girl6, calendars are an inspiration here as well. Some years ago I had one featuring the works of Boris Valejo and his wife Julie Bell which inspired me to purchase a couple of their books. Inspiring stuff!
Now we are mostly cats. It's a thing.
Didn't Frazetta do a totally cool headless horseman? Wouldn't mind finding a print.

Yes!!!! if our witches calendar was like this, it would be Perfect!!!

Autumnleaf...Boris Vallejo & Julie Bell are a master team!!!! i actually snagged a BV book, a few weeks back, at the used bookstore, up the street. funny, huh. & Omg, yes, Frazetta's headless horsemen are beauties!!! i ALSO love his...wolfman..flesh eaters..egyptian queen & his princess & the panther!!!! yeah, calendars make the year soooooo much more fun. i'm a cat lover (& dogs too) so i totally get those calendar celebrations too. we own a crazy calico kitty named Autumn.. : D
