  1. "Got My Mojo Working" is a #blues song written by Preston "Red" Foster and first recorded by #RAndB singer #AnnCole in 1956. Foster's lyrics describe several #amulets or #talismans, called #mojo, which are associated with #hoodoo, an early African-American folk-magic belief system. In 1957, #MuddyWaters released the song with some different lyrics and a new musical arrangement. It was a feature of his performances throughout his career.

  2. 1/2 I need your feedback: I made some #talismans as #wearableArt: you can either frame them or wear them as a #brooch.
    My idea: some #goodVibes #hope and #beauty for difficult times. Made by my real human hands, mainly with #silk rests from sarees (#recycling waste) and #slowStitching.
    One place for #art said: Our clients are too conservative for it.

    Can you imagine that people could like it or is my idea too crazy? (If it would be a "thing" I could sell online.)

  4. I've completed the talismans I've worked whilst I've been in Wales this time. Along with some drawings which I wasn't thinking of as related ( but who knows, I'm only the artist making these ). I have to give some serious thought to how I'm going to progress an installation of them. #art #arte #Talisman #talismans #installation #driftwood #Acrylicpaintskin #awaystudio #studiowork #cymru #studio #galleries

  5. Redux:

    This is #November, when the old people would gather for their early #winter #spells and place strange ornaments along the coast. These #rituals were and still are important to keep the Sea #Crone from unleashing her anger.

    They use these #charms and #talismans that bring those rays of light on an otherwise angry ocean.
