Silverweed by Sharon Strand Sigfuson Oil ~ 10 x 8

A plant of the Potentilla genus, it was thought to be a favorite of witch's brew. Mixed with deadly nightshade, hemlock, thornapple, and spider's legs. Witches also used the plant to produce a trance-like state by rubbing the leaves over their bodies. Art and legends from the artist's book 'Flowers, Forests and Folklore' unpublished at this time.
