"The Everyday Witch's Coven" I wanted to share again this magical cover art I created for @deborahblakeauthor.bsky.social's book, "The Everyday Witch's Coven: Rituals and Magic for Two or More," published by Llewellyn Worldwide. The painting was created with ink, watercolor, and acryla gouache.

Traditional illustration created for a book cover, features five modern-day witches holding hands and dancing around a fire pit, along with a black cat. There is a full moon above with a pentacle in the center of it. Glowing embers rise from the fire into the celestial skies.
