"Capturing the World in Watercolor
Paul is a self-taught watercolor artist that has been studying the art of painting for nearly 15 years. He's inspired by natures beauty and attempts to capture the romance of outdoor life and inspirational locations. Each painting is based on a unique experience that invites the viewer to form their own interpretation.
He uses a sealant and bees wax to seal and protect the surface. This technique allows the watercolor paintings to be displayed without the traditional use of glass for protection."

WELCOME TO PACIFIC BEWITCHERY!
We are happy to welcome you to our world of art, nature, and reflection. We are a mother and daughter team with a long history of otherworldly creative endeavors. We use elements from our home in the Pacific Northwest to infuse our candles with the essence of peace we find in our mystical Salish Sea and lush forests of evergreen. You will find that the reputation of our candles is a direct reflection of the thought, skill, and top quality materials put into them.
We create our candles in very small batches and decorate each one individually with special care and attention to the aesthetic of each. Some of our candles are built upon intention while others honor our love for nature, animals, art, and the fantastical things we see around us. Our desire for expression fuels an ever-changing and expanding collection.
