“The Blacksmith at Night” -- My mother commissioned this picture, and I made it with great love for my Bonpapa, who was a blacksmith for many years, as his father was before him. The gate in the foreground is based on one he made and which is still in his garden -- I used to trace the metal curlicues with my fingers as a child. And the leaves are based on the actual purplish-red bushes that encircle my grandparents’ garden. The original is now hanging in my grandparents’ home in Belgium, and I’m glad that they can have some of my art with them, even while we are far apart.

“Brainstorming” -- a papercut I made for my Dad’s birthday in December. He’s a physicist, a teacher, and a lover of the arts, and this is how I picture his brain.

Prints are available in my Etsy shop: AngeliqueWille.etsy.com

“Love Trumps Hate” -- I painted this in the immediate aftermath of the 2016 election. I was shocked and frightened, and very aware that as a woman and as an immigrant, the political environment is not one which promises safety.

Any product in my etsy shop (AngeliqueWille.etsy.com) featuring this image will have all profits donated to the ACLU. Please feel free to reblog, share, and use this image in any way that is helpful and brings comfort on this difficult road ahead. To those who are part of a marginalized group, I want you to know that I recognize how difficult things are now and are going to continue to be, and I’m committed to doing what I can to be a good ally and to combat the continued bigotry which is embraced by the president-elect and his cronies.

“A Winter’s Dance” -- A holiday card design based on the Nutcracker ballet -- a favorite treat of the season for me! We’ve seen it performed by the Philadelphia ballet several times when we were living there. My subconscious took over and made the prince in this picture look quite a bit like my husband...

These cards and others are available in my Etsy shop in sets of 10 and 20: AngeliqueWille.etsy.com

I recently opened an Etsy shop with some prints of some of my favorite pieces. I’d be thrilled if you took a look, favorited it if you’re so inclined, and visited it again in the future! I’m planning to add some holiday card designs to it as well, probably by the beginning of November.

My entry (front and back) for the Envelope art contest held by the Edward Gorey House every October. I’ve loved Gorey’s work since I was a kid - it was interesting to try to adapt his style to my own! Do check out his work if you’ve never seen it before.

For this October, my version of a witchsona. My powers would go towards keeping my tea warm and my books in easy distance. My wand would be a paint brush.
