Get to know Jacqueline Wild of Glitter and Earth, the artist behind our 2027, 13 Moon Journal end papers and her deep creative connection to the Cornish coast and moon cycles.
Hi! My name is Jacqueline Wild, but most people online will know me as Glitter and Earth. I was invited to illustrate the end papers for the 2027, 13 Moon Journal and I was really excited to be involved in the project.
I grew up in SE London but Cornwall cast a spell on me very early on in my life and so it was a dream come true to finally move here. I now live in a cosy old miners cottage within walking distance of the sea and count my blessings every day.
The ocean is a magical space for me and I love taking underwater photos and enjoying the way the light dances over kelp and creates otherworldly beams and rainbows upon the sea bed.
I think that I must be a sea witch as my heart feels very content walking along the shore line and gazing into rock pools. I love to sing into wild spaces and feel my energy mix with the wind!
Following the cycles of the moon is also an important part of my spiritual practice. It’s strangely awe inspiring and grounding to think that we are part of this celestial time piece and we have the ability to consciously connect with the cosmic ebb and flow of it all.
To be honest I find all of nature fascinating and find a lot of magic in the mundane. There is such beauty in organic patterns and there is so much to learn from the wild. As an illustrator I hope to share some of the wonder that I feel.
