Remembering Lily for the Poe Appreciation Hop


It's the final day of the Poe Appreciation Blog Hop.  The Linky expires at 11:55 pm PST TONIGHT but I feel I must share at least one last past project.  My favorite of all of Poe's works is Annabel Lee and this project fills me with sadness as the artist, Lily Chilvers of the Octopode Factory, also tragically passed away in 2015.  Fortunately, her art lives on and her spirit lives in the hearts of all she touched.  The stamps are still available as a set HERE and you can read the original post and details of my project HERE. ​

    The Octopode stamps are a bit different! Love the lighthouse too.

    Awwwww, wonderful tribute to both Lily and Mr Poe, so eerie and POEfect! I'm off to see about adding her Poe to my collection, her creepy style is right up my alley and have some of her quirky Alice images already so Poe is a must.

    Thank you for sharing this very fitting piece with us all and playing in my Poe Hop this year!

    Heads up on what's coming next! Come and get dark & twisty with us for MY DARK VALENTINE BLOG HOP!

    Great works. I believe her shop had been closed down and there is no announcement either.
