The Green Wolf


Be aware that this Tumblr frequently includes pictures of art made with animal remains, as well as rampant feminist opinions, corgis and bats, and lush landscapes.

Artist, author, (neo)shaman, and wannabe polymath living in the Pacific Northwe(s)t.

I discovered neopaganism in the mid-1990s, and shortly thereafter began my work with animal totems and neoshamanism. Over the years I've wandered through various paths, ranging from Wicca-flavored neopaganism to Chaos magic, but for the past few years I've been creating Therioshamanism, a post-industrial neo-shamanic path. I've also been creating various neopagan ritual tools and other sacred art from hides, bones, beads and other such things since about the same time. And I've written several nonfiction books on totemism, animal magic, and related topics. Currently working on "New Paths to Plant and Fungus Totems".

A few places to find me, as I'm all over the internet:

Ask me anything

I just posted some pouches made from secondhand leather over on my Etsy shop. There are a couple I painted, plus a few with scrap fur, and one with a trio of coyote claws. You can see ‘em all at the Green Wolf shop :)

A nice-sized black leather pouch, 7 1/2” x 10 1/2”, that was ordered on commission by a customer. It’s made entirely from leather salvaged from an old coat. You can’t see them in this pic, but there are two pockets inside, along the back panel.
Alright, back to working on the custom list!

I just uploaded some (mostly vintage/reclaimed) fur and leather pouches to my Etsy shop! The above pics are just a sample; there are more than these. There’s some rabbit fur drawstring pouches, a leather necklace pouch with raccoon fur, a leather and fox face bag—and two pouches (one small, one large) made from vintage Asian leopard cat fur from a coat, very rare! Head over here to check them out!

I’m just screaming right now.  BRING THEM ALL TO ME.

Two of ‘em have already sold since I posted this earlier today. so act fast :D

I already got mine!  It’s probably only polite to leave some behind for everyone else..

(Oh, who am I kidding.  If I had the money, they’d all be mine, bwahahahhaaaaa)

*snerk* Sharing is fun, though! ;)

And thank you for the purchase! Just shipped stuff last night at the 24/7 postal kiosk (love that thing!) so your pouch should arrive sometime this coming week!

Part of today’s to-do list was putting a bunch of necklace pouches over on my Etsy. While I like big, elaborate projects, sometimes I just take time off to dig around in my scrap bins and make a bunch of little things like this. It’s part of what helps me stay sane as a full-time working artist.
Anyway, there are a bunch of them available now—check them out here!

Another custom order; the customer requested twelve of my little 2” x 2” scrap leather pouches that i sell for $1 each. The lineup looked so cute I had to share :)
