Welcome to PlainCards Basic Witchcraft Lessons Isn't the above picture phenomenal? It's called "The Eyes of Autumn" and appeared originally on the cover of a fantasy role playing magazine.

The artist is one of my all time favorite fantasy artists by the name of Larry Elmore and you can find this piece and many others at his site. I'm ordering a full size reproduction from him in the very near future to hang on the wall of my Temple Room near the one I have of Frank Frazetta. This is a series of FREE lessons in Witchcraft as I teach them. The lessons are free and you are free to use them, distribute them and abuse them to your heart's content PROVIDED if you put them up at your website, all that I ask is that credit is given to me, Brother MOLOCH 969, as the original author and a link back to my own website, and I'll be one happy camper. ;) Lesson ONE Lesson TWO Lesson THREE Lesson FOUR Lesson FIVE Lesson SIX
