About Ink Witch
Ink Witch is a persona created by me, Tasha Wilkinson, in 2017. It combines two of the things that have shaped my life: drawing and magic.
I'm fascinated by witchcraft, magic, the occult and folklore. It has been a personal interest of mine that has grown up with me, and continues to inspire me in my artwork today.
I'm also inspired of course by others artists & designers - William Morris, Alphonse Mucha, Enid Marx, Camille Rose Garcia, Arthur Rackham, Josephine Wall are just a few of my favourites.
I love collecting all sorts of things from natural objects, vintage items and paper ephemera, and these also inspire my work and ideas.
