William Blake 2008 Calendar SOLD OUT

"I am not ashamed, afraid, or averse to tell you what Ought to be Told: That I am under the direction of Messengers from Heaven, Daily & Nightly." Eighteenth century English poet, artist, mystic and prophetic visionary William Blake was virtually unknown during his own lifetime; a quintessential outsider artist.

Today he is widely recognized as one the greatest poets in the English language, as well as a powerfully original visionary artist.

The Ghost Hunter Shop is proud to offer the William Blake 2008 wall calendar, a selection of art and poetry illustrating Blake's passionate lifelong belief that art and the imagination are doorways to the Divine. "Prayer is the Study of Art; Praise is the Practice of Art."

Sample Caption: COSMIC ELF, oil painting on wood, 2003. Cosmic Elf portrays a Being made of fire and galactic swirls. Punctuated by eyes of many sizes, the Elf's body and limbs are interlacing ribbons of spectral, spiky fire. The flaring flaming forehead and outstretched arms and legs connect merging head, hands and feet with universal energies. This elemental sprite of consciousness seems a peculiar species of seraphim.
