Elisabeth Alba @elisabethalba.bsky.social · Nov 17
Hi there! I'm Elisabeth. I live in Mass, have 2 kids, am married to @murphyillustration.bsky.social, + am currently working on the Whimsy Woods Tarot for Llewellyn (my 3rd tarot deck, but this one was my idea!). I'm really into animal art lately. Here's a few recent paintings. Nice to meet you all!
The Fool card from the upcoming Whimsy Woods Tarot. A basset hound minstrel sings on a cliff, the town below. Owl companion shouts a warning. This deck will be written by Deborah Blake. A red dragon with its hoard of treasure. 9 of Pentacles from the upcoming 78 Tarot Medieval deck. Illustration of an otter and badger couple strolling down Cockburn St in Edinburgh. Illustration of two witchy cats making a mess while brewing a potion.

"Follow Your Dreams" 🌟 from the Everyday Witch Oracle, illustrated by Elisabeth Alba, written by Deborah Blake, and published by Llewellyn Worldwide.

Signed oracle decks and art prints at albaillustration.etsy.com (prints and a few other items are currently on sale!!)
Ink and watercolor illustration - a witch holds a broom and is looking out of a window (celestial skies), they are about to set off on a journey. Inside the room (stone walls and blazing torches), there is a cat looking into a crystal ball at another cat, and a table with candles on it.

Two owls flying, facing a rainbow with 10 golden chalices along the arch. On the ground are two young owls playing with a frog, in a field of flowers. A red drawing standing on its hoard of treasure inside of a stone castle, in front of an open window, vineyards visible outside. A family of wolves play in the foreground (two adults and two pups). In the background, a wolf stands on a rocky outcrop, howling at the full moon visible behind it. A witch stirs a potion in a large cauldron. Hearts and sparkles float in the magical smoke coming from the cauldron, and the smoke also takes the form of a heart shape. A cat is on a pillow on the ground, pawing at an open heart shaped box of chocolates.

Two new vinyl stickers in my shop! And a new listing where you can order 5 for $20 (the same multi-sticker discount you'd get in person). They're so fun to make! They'd make great stocking stuffers or mini gifts, along with my bookplate sticker packs and mini tarot decks!

My 5th blanket design, and my personal favorite so far. I love the stars! ✨

You can find tapestry blankets of this and 4 other designs in my shop at www.albaillustration.com/original-art...! 100% cotton, machine washable, made in the US. Throw over the couch, use as a bed topper, hang on the wall!
Photograph of tapestry blanket held up so it is in view - it's a celestial blue sky with stars. A black cat, sea turtle, and red fox are positioned in a circle in the middle. Around them is a spellbook, a magic wand, a potion bottle, and a black pointed hat, all floating over the celestial background. The blanket folded.
