What adventures we will have in this fairy tale garden filled with moonlight and flowers. The night is black and the stars are bright, the wildflower meadow is mysterious, dark and deep. Come in, follow the shine of moonlight on the circle shaped steps; let the meandering stone lined path lead the way through the gloom, take a journey into this Queendom of dreams. Discover a magical place that exists between waking and sleeping, a place of reality and imagination, where the boundaries blur between the conscious and waking worlds. Drift away on the heady scent of night blooms and drink in the musk of hidden wild creatures. They wait with you, relaxing calmly in quiet anticipation for the evening’s entertainment to begin. Are you ready? Can you hear it? Listen to the enchanting music emanating from the trees above, a choir of night birds singing in perfect harmony. Look higher! Watch as the stars fall and turn into flowers, which bud and open, like unfolding wishes. Close your eyes tight, quickly tell them your deepest desires, they may just grant you. Now observe as the butterfly dances so gracefully and kisses the flowers, causing them to grow. Watch out, you better duck! Hearts race as hummingbirds buzz by, brushing your skin with a fast feather soft caress. How you will laugh as lizards lounge in lazy latitude while the dragonflies deliver aerobatic flights of delight. Pass into this dimension of mystery and magic and give yourself to the realm of the Goddess Flora. This is the world of Amy E. Fraser’s Night Garden. You are most welcome here.

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween! Today has always been one of my all time favorite holidays! It is a night full of magic and mystery, a time to face ones fears and celebrate all the dark and scary! I loved Halloween as a kid, making costumes, collecting candy, participating in the adventure, scaring each other to death, what's not to love? Becoming a mother and experiencing Halloween with my son brought it all back. Caden loved Halloween! And I have to admit all the work was worth it when watching him traumatize the other children in his creepy costumes. I'm kidding. He was much too nice for that, no one was scared. Anyway, I had a whole historical Halloween post organized. It was about Samhain, the barrier between the worlds thinning, inviting the dead to dinner... but then I remembered you probably just stopped by to see Caden's Halloween Costumes . It's fine, here they are, all of your favorites: Ghost, Goblin, Vampire, Mummy, Devil, Werepanther and Steampunk Gentleman. Enjoy! Have

The Legend of Hare Terra

Hello Everyone! I’m super excited to announce that I bought the domain name for The Legend of Hare Terra last night! For those of you not familiar with my story, I started The Legend of Hare Terra series back in 2009. I began The Legend of Hare Terra right after I had introduced my beloved Hares at my AVA Gallery “ Wildflower Meadow ” Exhibition. They first made their appearance in my painting series “Meadow Tales”. I am thrilled to say that they were extremely well received. Good thing, because it was already too late, I was obsessed! 10 years later... Okay, so I didn’t work on the series the entire time, but I did step away from the art scene to concentrate on what I hope will prove to be an epic art * experience *. The end goal of the project evolved and changed numerous times over the last decade and eventually The Legend of Hare Terra grew into a collection of over 300 individual art pieces! OMG, right? Soooo, what does one do with a giant body of art dedicated to one subject

Practically Snow White

  House In The Meadow by Amy E. Fraser      Once upon a time, not so very long ago, a young couple yearned for a clean and wholesome environment in which to raise their newborn son. The man and woman scraped together all of their savings and put a small down payment on a beautiful piece of land on the side of a mountain, deep in the New Hampshire forest. They went through many trials and tribulations but eventually they began to build their dream home. While still unfinished, the couple, anxious to begin their new life, moved from their noisy apartment in an ancient Round House on top of busy train tracks into the quiet new house in the middle of the forest. When they arrived, they imagined that the most difficult part was behind them and looked forward to the next step in their journey together.      The house in the forest represented the dreams the couple shared for their future. However, the beginning times were very hard. The couple realized they had been overly opt
